I have a Spring application and I want to run in it an embedded Jetty instance where I want to deploy a Grails application.
I need the Grails application to have access to the application context of the Spring application.
I am deploying the Grails application as following:
Server webServer = new Server(8080);
WebAppContext webapp = new WebAppContext();
webapp.setContextPath("/");
webapp.setWar("MyGrailsApp.war");
webServer.setHandler(webapp);
webServer.start();
To get the Grails application access to Spring application context I further added these lines before calling webServer.start() :
ParentAwareContextLoaderListener contextLoaderListener = new ParentAwareContextLoaderListener();
//appContext is context of my Spring application
contextLoaderListener.setApplicationContext(appContext);
webapp.addEventListener(contextLoaderListener);
ParentAwareContextLoaderListener is a simple class like this:
public class ParentAwareContextLoaderListener extends ContextLoaderListener implements ApplicationContextAware {
private ApplicationContext applicationContext;
@Override
protected ApplicationContext loadParentContext(final ServletContext servletContext) {
return applicationContext;
}
@Override
public void setApplicationContext(final ApplicationContext applicationContext) throws BeansException {
this.applicationContext = applicationContext;
}
}
I further removed the original ContextLoaderListener from the Grails application web.xml. While this approach worked for one other non grails application, it is for some reason not working with Grails. I get this exception:
20138 [main] ERROR org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader ContextLoader - Context initialization failed
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: ConfigurableWebApplicationContext environment must be of type ConfigurableWebEnvironmentObject of class [org.springframework.core.env.StandardEnvironment] must be an instance of interface org.springframework.web.context.ConfigurableWebEnvironment

Any idea how can this problem be solved? Thank you for any help
I finally used a completely different approach. See for example this link http://techo-ecco.com/blog/spring-application-context-hierarchy-and-contextsingletonbeanfactorylocator/ for solution which uses ContextSingletonBeanFactoryLocator.
