Embedded tomcat 7 servlet 3.0 annotations not working

Question

I have a stripped down test project which contains a Servlet version 3.0, declared with annotations like so:

    @WebServlet(\"/test\")
public class TestServ

Given the JNDI magic in the snippet you posted:

try {
    listBindings = context.getResources().listBindings(
            "/WEB-INF/classes");
} catch (NameNotFoundException ignore) {
    // Safe to ignore
}

could you maybe set up the same sort of entries in JNDI yourself?

Context ctx = tomcat.addWebapp(...);
FileDirContext fdc = new FileDirContext();
fdc.setDocBase(new File("/path/to/my/classes").getAbsolutePath());
ctx.getResources().createSubcontext("/WEB-INF/classes").bind("myclasses", fdc);
