Hello,

I am working on writing unit tests for some of my resource classes using
embedded Jetty. My project is using maven. I have my unit tests in a
different location than that of the sources. I have set the package of
my resource classes in the servlet init params.

When I run my test, I am getting the following error. Lookslike, its not
able to scan my resources located in the src dir. I am using the latest
Jersey 0.8 snapshots.

SEVERE: Nested in javax.servlet.ServletException:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
com.sun.jersey.config.property.classpath contains no paths:

Here is my AbstractTest lookslike:

public class AbstractTest extends TestCase {
  private static Server server;

  public void setUp() throws Exception {
    ServletHolder sh = new ServletHolder(ServletContainer.class);
    
sh.setInitParameter("com.sun.ws.rest.config.property.resourceConfigClass",
"com.sun.ws.rest.api.core.PackagesResourceConfig");
    sh.setInitParameter("com.sun.ws.rest.config.property.packages",
"impl.rest.resources");
    server = new Server(9080);
    Context context = new Context(server, "/", Context.SESSIONS);
    context.addServlet(sh, "/*");
    server.start();
  }

  public void tearDown() throws Exception {
    if (server != null)
      server.stop();
  }
}


My package structure looks like:

webapp
--src
    --main\java\impl\rest\resources
    -- test\java\unittests

Can some one help me understand this error?

Thanks,
Arul
