Private accessing problem when overloading(friends)

[Need4Sleep]

I've never had this issue before, it's got to be a really simple mistake im missing here but i just cant figure it out. Here is the error report im getting:

so i obviously cant access my private members, yet i made my functions friends to the class so they would be able to access them.

stockType.h

    return os;
}

i appreciate any help, thanks!

Try moving the stream overloads implementation into the header.
Edit: And change percent_calc to float stockType::percent_calc() const;
Edit2: Actually, just remove the const from the ostream and add the reference operator to the istream declarations.
