Re: Debuging CSS

[Jeanne Waldman]

I think we should have a public api to turn styleclass compression off, 
like always turn off styleclass compression when in debug mode.

It's the external link to the "Some documentation from mvn site".

Chris,

Good point about it not being mentioned in the Wiki, it surely deserve a
place there now that generated CSS no longer contains the 
uncompressed value
(recent change). You need to be logged to edit the Wiki but anyone 
can get
an account I think. I can also add it myself if you prefer.

The class containing that constant is defined in 2 classes !!! (I'll 
start
topic on dev list about that):

org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.renderkit.core.xhtml.StyleSheetRenderer 

and
org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.share.config.Configuration

Note that both classes are in Trinidad's private API (trinidad-impl.jar)
though.

Simon,

Thanks - I looked on the wiki again thinking I missed it; but it's not
there.  I would have added this; but the wiki is not editable.

http://incubator.apache.org/adffaces/devguide/configuration.html#web.xml 


I haven't started to read the source yet; but for future reference, 
what
class did this come from?

Thanks again for you help - I appreciate it,
Chris....
