I get errors when running this:

#include <iostream>
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500
#include <windows.h>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include "Color.h"

using namespace std;

class Dwarf
{
    public:
    Dwarf (string n, int a, int x, int y);
    ~Dwarf ();

    int age, Xpos, Ypos, carry;
    string job, name;
};

Dwarf::Dwarf (string n, int a, int x, int y) : name(n), age(a), Xpos(x), Ypos(y)
{}

Dwarf::~Dwarf(){};

int main()
{
    Dwarf Stubby("Stubby", 10, 10, 10);
    cout << Dwarf::age;
    //ParseInput();
}

Errors:

The first three messages are warnings because your compiler is too stupid to realize that initialization order doesn't actually matter you in that case - in some cases it does matter and the warning would alert you to a bug, but not in this case.

As for the last two messages, that is actually an error. I think you meant to write "Stubby.age" instead of "Dwarf::age"
