Jan, Joakim,
Thank you so much for your help and your quick response - turning on annotation
processing fixed the problem.
For the benefit of anyone with a similar problem in the future, I simply needed
to add two lines to my launch method, namely:
// Enable annotation processing so that Spring Boot does its magic
Configuration.ClassList classlist = Configuration.ClassList
.setServerDefault(server);
classlist.addBefore(
"org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.JettyWebXmlConfiguration",
"org.eclipse.jetty.annotations.AnnotationConfiguration");
(adapted from
https://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.4.8.v20171121/using-annotations-embedded.html)
The example given in the Annotations chapter is more complicated because it
configures JNDI as well, but for Spring Boot, you only need
AnnotationConfiguration.
Best wishes,
Robert
