Constructor using a filename

[translationlost]

Hello,

This is my first time trying C++ and I'm having problems with my syntax and getting my program to compile. Basically, I'm just trying to read in a file using a constructor.

Image.h

#ifndef Image_H
#define Image_H

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include "ImageLib.h"
using namespace std;

class Image {

public:

Image ReadGIF(string filename);

};
#endif 

Image.cpp

#include "Image.h"

// read Image constructor
Image::image ReadGIF(string filename);

ImageLib.h

#pragma once

#include <string>
using namespace std;

#define DllExport   __declspec( dllexport )


DllExport image ReadGIF(string filename);

DllExport void WriteGIF(string filename, image inputImage);

DllExport void DeallocateImage(image &inputImage);

DllExport image CopyImage(image inputImage);

DllExport image CreateImage(int rows, int cols);

Yeah...i'm a huge noob. Here is the error:

error C2039: 'image' : is not a member of 'Image'

C++ is case sensitive. Also it looks like there are more problems with your code but I'm about to go to sleep so I'll let others help you with that. ;)
