I would be all for adding the "B_" prefix now, too. I'm against: all USB definitions are from external specifiers, either USB- IF or vendors. Neither Be Inc at his time neither us can influence USB standards specification. We made some effort to keep these definitions names from being as crypted as seen on other platforms, witch is great, but prefixing with B_ wont add any value but could make someone think it's specific to BeOS/Haiku. On the other side, I'm for having one single prefix for every USB constants in our USB_*.h, which we don't have yet. Same should applied for typenames too (usb_*). Anyway, if you choose to prefix all USB constants, there is several others USB_*.h and components including them to fix too for consistency. To be short: 1. I'm against prefixing with B_, 2. but I'm for always prefixing with '''US'''B_ ;-) -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6115#comment:7> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
