... then you should be asking this in comp.lang.c++ .

You declaring these in the class? Are you just trying to overload the
inherited Mammal functions? In which case, you don't put the Mammal::
namespace in there, as you're now in the Horse namespace.

Also you can't set anything equal to anything within the class
declaration (I think) so that's a mistake too. You need to do all of that
in the class constructor Horse().

I'm not an expert, but I think the above is all hopelessly wrong. But
you're definitely asking in the wrong newsgroup. This isn't a
compiler-specific problem, I don't think.
