Embedded Jetty looking for files inside its Jar file

I successfully embedded Jetty on a test application. It can serve files without issues. Now I want to know if it's possible for Jetty to serve files that are inside its own Jar file.

Does anyone know if that's possible?

jsp jar jetty embedded-jetty embeddedwebserver

It's pretty simple, if you throw Spring into the equation. And here it goes:

 ...

 WebAppContext webAppContext = new WebAppContext();
 webAppContext.setServer(server);
 webAppContext.setContextPath("/");
 webAppContext.setResourceBase(new ClassPathResource("webapp").getURI().toString());

 server.addHandler(webAppContext); 

 ....

That will make jetty find the necessary web resources inside the jar file.
