Class DevTool


  • public class DevTool
    extends Object
    Renders a dropdown menu of useful options when developing. By default, the DevTool is disabled (invisible) during production. The DevTool provides the following options:
    • Reset the page state, discarding any persistent page properties
    • Kill the HttpSession (discarding any server-side state)
    • Re-render the page (useful after changing the page or template)
    • Re-render the page with rendering comments
    • Reload all pages and components: classes, messages, templates
    • Open the T5 Dashboard page in a new window
    Note that due to conflicts between Prototype and jQuery, the dev tool is hidden after selecting an item from the menu.

    If false, then the component does not render. Defaults to true unless production mode is enabled.

    If true, then the DevTool modifies its markup so as to work within a Bootstrap 3 NavBar. This renders the component as a <li> (instead of a <div>), and removes the "btn" CSS classes.
