[jetty-users] Enabling async

[Philip Healy <philip.healy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

  I am trying out the new Servlet 3.0 async API with Jetty 8.0.0.0 M0.
 When I call request.startAsync() in doGet() I get an exception:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: !asyncSupported


I found a post from Greg stating that async must be enabled in the
handler that the servlet is hosted in.  How do you do this
programatically (i.e., without using web.xml)?

Regards,
Philip
