Because it has many more improvements than it was planned for minor realease. And time gap was much longer than 3 months. This should be explained with version number.
Yes, 0.4.15 has 3.5 years of gap already.
Despite that, it's not correct to re-number it. Firstly, for years we have said 0.5 is going to mark beginnings of Beta series.
0.4.15 has not the quality of Beta. We have major progress in the kernel but it's still not enough.
For call ReactOS as Beta, we need to clear most of the hangs/BSoDs, provide some sort of reliable operation with 3rd party drivers and resolve glitches inside apps.

When would we use data type prefix such as h for HANDLE and dw for DWORD when naming variables?
For example in kernel32.CreateFileW implementation there are https://doxygen.reactos.org/dd/d83/dll_2win32_2kernel32_2client_2file_2create_8c_source.html#l00060 variables that use prefix and also there are vars that doesn't use prefix.
\Device\NUL
Yeah, Win32 Naming Convention is clear naming but I don't know when to use prefix and when not using prefix.
\Device\NUL
But in NtWriteFile file handle parameter doesn't have h prefix FileHandle while in WriteFile it's named hFile
\Device\NUL
Does when working in Native API such as prefix naming is avoided?
\Device\NUL
Okay, thank you for spending time answering my question
\Device\NUL
Simple naming is like a sin to me when programming using WinAPI :P
\Device\NUL
I'm not typical guy that naming stuffs based on my styles. You don't use hungarian notation with POSIX API don't you
\Device\NUL
Heh 😗, but I did found senior Windows dev that using simple naming when using Win32 API

Haha, lol! 😄 Did anybody notice? Twitter partially restored old name (vxtwitter instead of just X) and posts are named as tweets again (at least as it's for me)! Looks like Elon had a lot of negative reaction from users. 😏 Sorry for offtop if what...
P.S.: hoping he will completely restore all other things as they were earlier. 😌🤞

In general, for usermode code its used

So when it goes to kernel mode and Native API it didn't used?

hbelusca 👍☢: it's the win32 hungarian notation.

hbelusca 👍☢: indeed it's not really used there.

lets incorporate unRAR into reactOS

Wait: you mean the os being able to open .rar like compressed folders in windows?
Mike
That would be cool, but idk how complex it would be

The explorer.exe able to read .rar files I guess

Thanks, so this one (sorry, I am dyslexic and also a bit dumb). It would be cool. I like vhd support in windows 10, too, but I think it is very complex. Still, unzip/unrar on explorer would be great
