Embedding Jetty
Setting up the classpath
To run Jetty, you need only these jars:
- jetty.jar
- servlet-api-2.5.jar
- jetty-util.jar

If you wish to use JSPs, then you will need a couple of additional jars.
JSP2.0
JSP 2.0 is used with version 2.4 of the servlet specification. Depending on the functionality you require, you may be able to use this version rather than the newer JSP2.1 jars.
JSP2.1
 | Remember! You need to use J2SE5 (aka jdk 1.5) if you wish to use JSP2.1. |
This is the jsp version mandated by servlet specification 2.5. You will need these jars:
