If that's the case, it sounds like you don't need really any "integration". Both OpenEJB and Jetty have very expressive APIs for building things up in code. I wouldn't recommend this to just anyone, but it sounds like you might get a little giggle out of the possibilities. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openejb/trunk/sandbox/jettyfun/src/test/java/org/superbiz/jettyfun/JettyIntegrationTest.java There isn't really a "test" there, I just started playing -- I tend to use tests rather than main classes for prototyping. Just a little proof of concept. There are numerous ways that could be tweaked, changed, or expanded. The idea was just to get the creative juices flowing. So note on the "if (proxied)" statement. One approach just has OpenEJB build the actual instance and hand it over bare to Jetty. This approach will get you a fully injected instance, but none of the container managed services that are setup prior to calls being made; jndi, transactions, interceptors, locking, cdi request scope. The other approach get's you all that extra stuff. I would note that when you have the kind of control shown in that simple little example, you can easily make that decision however you want. For example, that if block could be: if (beanContext.getBeanClass().isAnnotationPresent(Proxied.class)) { // Interceptors, transactions, CDI scope management all will be enabled servlet = (Servlet) beanContext.getBusinessLocalHome().create(); } else { // Here we just take the raw injected instance and use it directly final InstanceContext instanceContext = beanContext.newInstance(); servlet = (Servlet) instanceContext.getBean(); } Where 'Proxied' is some annotation you made up and apply where you want it. As well the line that uses the ejbName as the path could just as easily use some other annotation of your design to set the path -- you could even reuse the @WebServlet annotation if you wanted. Most people aren't used to thinking like an app server developer and so these things aren't obvious, but with the right mindset you can have all sorts of wicked fun. -David
