Project description
============
2013-08-30 10:04:21 -04:00
Jetty is a lightweight highly scalable java based web server and servlet engine.
Our goal is to support web protocols like HTTP, HTTP/2 and WebSocket in a high
volume low latency way that provides maximum performance while retaining the ease
of use and compatibility with years of servlet development. Jetty is a modern
fully async web server that has a long history as a component oriented technology
easily embedded into applications while still offering a solid traditional
distribution for webapp deployment.

Building
========
To build, use:
```shell
mvn clean install
```
The jetty distribution will be built in `jetty-distribution/target/distribution`
The first build may take a long time as Maven downloads all the dependencies.
The tests do a lot of stress testing, and on some machines it is necessary to set the file descriptor limit to greater than 2048 for the tests to all pass successfully.
Bypass tests by building with `mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true install` but note that this will not produce some test jars that are leveraged in other places in the build.
