> I have encountered two significant problems when trying to use the Jetty WebSocketServlet with the Jetty based Felix HTTP service whiteboard. Both problems occur in the init method of my servlet.
>  1. I have to set the TCCL for the Jetty Web Socket implementation to be able to find its own internal implementation of Websockets (specifically org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.server.WebSocketServerFactory). This is really stupid, as the TCCL I have to use is the Felix HTTP Jetty bundle's class loader!
> 2. The Jetty Web Socket implementation does one (and only one) check to check that it's running on Jetty. It looks as though the only reason for this is to get hold of an Executor which is available via a getter. This check involves trying to establish the Jetty Context by casting the ServletContext to a Jetty internal type. This does not work as the HTTP Whiteboard wrappers the ServletContext. I can work around this by delaying initialisation to the first request so that there is a context to get hold of, but this also sucks :(
> In summary, my servlet has to look like this, most of which should not be necessary!
> {code:java}
>     public class EchoServlet extends WebSocketServlet {
>

>     
>         private final CountDownLatch initBarrier = new CountDownLatch(1); 
>     
>         @Override
>         public void init() throws ServletException {
>             LOGGER.info("The Echo servlet has been initialized, but we delay initialization until the first request so that a Jetty Context is available");	
>         }

>         @Override
>         public void service(ServletRequest arg0, ServletResponse arg1) throws ServletException, IOException {

>                     delayedInit();
