With the move to Eclipse, the Jetty 7 code base was refactored; this has several long-term benefits, but means that configuration files and code which use Jetty 6 classes must first be converted to Jetty 7.

Introduction

With the move to Eclipse, the Jetty 7 code base was refactored; this has several long-term benefits, but means that configuration files and code which use Jetty 6 classes must first be converted to Jetty 7.

Jetty 6, Jetty 7, and Jetty 8 are all now EOL (End of Life)
