I try to run jetty without web.xml. I have web.xml in project but I don’t want to load this file.

According to documentation: http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.plugins.jetty.JettyRun.html “webXml The web.xml file to use. When null, no web.xml file is used.”

I’ve created project to reproduce issue: https://github.com/lstrzelecki-issues/jettySkipWebXml

When i run script runme.sh I’m expectint that jetty will run properly. But it doesn’t becouse invalid web.xml is loaded.

$ gradle --version
