Apparently there is very little difference between Jetty 7 and 8 and so no need for an upgrade tool like the one for 6 to 7. For more details read the following reply to the message I posted on:-
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/jetty-users/msg03183.html
which says:-
The codebases for Jetty 7 and Jetty 8 are for all practical purposes identical.
They only differ by their Servlet API support level. Jetty 7 = Servlet API 2.5 Jetty 8 = Servlet API 3.0
In fact we make changes on Jetty 7 in our git repository and merge them up to Jetty 8 as our normal development processes. Since you are using the RewriteHandler and ForwardedSchemeHeaderRule there is a very high degree of confidence that they are identical in both Jetty 7 and Jetty 8.
There really no need for a jetty7to8-1.0.jar as it would literally be a class like this ...
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) {
System.out.println("Success, your Jetty 7 codebase and webapp will now run in Jetty 8");
}
}
