Using unchanged CSS class names (no obfuscation or prefixing at all)

[sinelaw]

I've created a patch for CssResources to not change CSS class names at
all.

Details + motivation are given in the issue here:
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=5659

Also, see at least one case where a developer (other than me) needed
such a feature:

I'm probably missing something, but how is this different than using
the "CssResource.style" property in your module's XML and setting the
value to "pretty"? Doing that results in disabling the class name
obfuscation.

You can also use the @External annotation on individual css classes to
do the same if you don't want everything in a CssResource being
unobfuscated.

Hi i found a solution. no obfuscation or prefixing at all.

At the begin of your css file put this line.

@external *
