I am a experienced maven user. Sometime I love it, sometimes I hate it. I like it a lot better than ant, but in some situation you would like maven to be easier and more descriptive. The past year there was a lot of fuzz about Gradle. This would give you the best of ant as well as the best of maven, and even more. My first encounter was not very positive, but I kept it in my mind to try it later with a more serious project. This blogpost is about that second more serious try. It will not teach the gradle experts anything, but it will be an easy introduction in to what gradle has to bring for people that are just interested in gradle.

OSGi has a service spec called http.service (see Service Compendium document of the OSGi Alliance). Felix has an implementation for it that is based around jetty 4.x. Since we are at jetty 6.1.7 at the moment I thought about trying to create an implementation of my own. Not that it is really necessary, you can expose resources without complying to the spec (
To be able to understand the implementation of an Http Service using jetty, you should understand the basics with respect to Jetty. In a forthcoming post I’ll talk more about these details. Within this post I’ll concentrate on the using of the service. I do need to make a few remarks. What if you do not want to apply the patch, change the pom, etc. Well you can download the one I have created from here :
