Debuging CSS
Is there a way to reverse map the generated CSS (or maybe generate the
CSS files with better names). For example, I have the following css on
an html element and am trying to track down where each of these is defined.
Not being a CSS expert it would be nice to be able even in a debug mode
to generate the CSS elements with more descriptive names so I can
quickly see what I need to change.
.xr, .xu, .x4j {MyCSS-des... (line 25)
color:#000000;
font-family:Browallia New,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,sans-serif;
font-size:10pt;
font-weight:normal;
padding:0px 8px 0px 0px;
text-align:left;
}
Thanks,
Chris....

Petr,
Thanks for the link. I personally am using the firebug addin
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843
which I think is a bit easier than the Web Developer Toolbar for css.
But thanks for mentioning it though, I like some of the other features
it has and will probably end up running both :)

Hi,
I am using Firefox with Web Developer Toolbar AddOn.
There are possible to online edit CSS and immediately see result. Very usefull...

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

Ah, I went back to the page and it is not actually on the wiki! There
is a link from the wiki that goes to this static page. The link to the
documentation on the wiki is here:
http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Trinidad
It's the external link to the "Some documentation from mvn site".

Re: Debuging CSS

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

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,

Hello Chris,
Try to set the
org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.DISABLE_CONTENT_COMPRESSION context
parameter to true while you're debugging CSS. This will generate only the
full version of the selectors, Here's the full doc:
/**
* Disables optimizations that are normally performed by the
* Trinidad Renderers to reduce content size.
* <p>
* This Boolean property controls whether or not Trinidad Renderer
* implementations should attempt to reduce the size of generated
* content, for example, by compressing style class names. These
* optimizations are enabled by default. In general,
* clients should not need to disable these optimizations. However,
* clients that want to disable this functionality for testing or
* debugging purposes can do so by setting this property to Boolean.TRUE.
*/
static public final String DISABLE_CONTENT_COMPRESSION =
"org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.DISABLE_CONTENT_COMPRESSION";
