I've got a servlet that I wish to deploy programmatically using Jetty. The servlet uses Spring and it's web.xml points to the Spring context XML file as you'd expect.
At the moment, I'm just trying the example code from the Jetty docs but with my own servlet:
Server server = new Server(8080);
ServletContextHandler context = new ServletContextHandler(ServletContextHandler.SESSIONS);
context.setContextPath("/");
server.setHandler(context);
context.addServlet(new ServletHolder(new BatchReceiver()),"/br/*");
server.start();
server.join();
This results in the following exception:

How can I set up my servlet so that Jetty knows where it's web.xml and Spring context are?
Any help would really be appreciated!
EDIT
So, apparently I don't need a web.xml but I do need to point Jetty to my Spring context. I've tried something like the following:
context.setInitParameter("contextConfigLocation", "classpath*:**/*Context.xml");
But it doesn't work (still produces the same exception). I've also tried setting the "contextConfigLocation" on the ServletHolder to no avail.
