Paul Bakker commented on FELIX-4421:
------------------------------------
There are some good reasons to go for 9.1 actually:
* WebSockets support
* Spdy
* Improved performance
I understand it's a tradeoff, and not mine to make, but Jetty 9 would
definitely be an interesting upgrade.
> Embed Jetty 8 in Felix Http Jetty
> ---------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-4421
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-4421
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HTTP Service
> Affects Versions: http-2.2.1
> Reporter: Dominique Pfister
> Attachments: patch.txt
>
>
> Currently, the Jetty version embedded in Felix Http Jetty is version
> 7.6.13.v20130916. In order to leverage features available in Servlet API 3.0
> only, I'd like to change the embedded version to 8.1.14.v20131031.
> A quick test shows that increasing this version number in parent/pom.xml
> alone requires some small changes to JettyService, deployment of a fresh
> build of Http Jetty into an OSGI container succeeds, but no request can be
> handled, because Jetty internally calls methods on interfaces and classes
> that were only introduced in Servlet API 3.0.
> This implies that the servlet version supported should be upped to 3.0 as
> well. In order to be backward compatible with bundles expecting a 2.x
> version, one could also export a virtual version (e.g. 2.6) to satisfy those.
