copied!<p>Well I finally solved it by looking in the Tomcat7 sources, namely in the unit tests that deal with EmbeddedTomcat and servlet 3.0 annotations.</p> <p>Basically, you must start your Embedded Tomcat 7 like this to make it aware of your annotated classes:</p> <pre><code>String webappDirLocation = "src/main/webapp/"; Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat(); tomcat.setPort(8080); StandardContext ctx = (StandardContext) tomcat.addWebapp("/embeddedTomcat", new File(webappDirLocation).getAbsolutePath()); //declare an alternate location for your "WEB-INF/classes" dir: File additionWebInfClasses = new File("target/classes"); VirtualDirContext resources = new VirtualDirContext(); resources.setExtraResourcePaths("/WEB-INF/classes=" + additionWebInfClasses); ctx.setResources(resources); tomcat.start(); tomcat.getServer().await(); </code></pre> <p>For the sake of clarity I should mention that this works for a standard Maven project where your "web resources" (such as static and dynamic pages, WEB-INF directory etc) are found in:</p> <p>[your project's root dir]/src/main/webapp </p> <p>and your classes get compiled into </p> <p>[your project's root dir]/target/classes</p> <p>(such that you'd have [your project's root dir]/target/classes/[some package]/SomeCompiledServletClass.class)</p> <p>For other directories layouts, these locations need to be changed accordingly.</p> <p>==== UPDATE: Embedded Tomcat 8 ====</p> <p>Thanks to @kwak for noticing this.</p> <p>The APIs have changed a bit, here how the above example changes when using Embedded Tomcat 8:</p> <pre><code>String webappDirLocation = "src/main/webapp/"; Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat(); tomcat.setPort(8080); StandardContext ctx = (StandardContext) tomcat.addWebapp("/embeddedTomcat", new File(webappDirLocation).getAbsolutePath()); //declare an alternate location for your "WEB-INF/classes" dir: File additionWebInfClasses = new File("target/classes"); WebResourceRoot resources = new StandardRoot(ctx); resources.addPreResources(new DirResourceSet(resources, "/WEB-INF/classes", additionWebInfClasses.getAbsolutePath(), "/")); ctx.setResources(resources); tomcat.start(); tomcat.getServer().await(); </code></pre>
