Using Spring3.2 MVC with embedded jetty9 - spring-mvc

Question

I am trying to implement an embedded jetty server using spring mvc for dispatching. I tried several tutorials but monstyl they are out of date or don't use embedded jetty.
So far I created a new spring mvc project from scratch in intellij idea.
src/
main/
java/
com.springapp.mvc/
HelloController.java
Launcher.java
webapp/
WEB-INF/
mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml
web.xml
pom.xml
HelloController.java
#Controller
#RequestMapping("/")
public class HelloController {
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String printWelcome(ModelMap model) {
model.addAttribute("message", "Hello world!");
return "hello";
}
}
Launcher.java
public class Launcher {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Server server = new Server(8080);
//todo: implementation to use dispatcher-servlet...
server.start();
server.join();
}
}
mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/pages/"/>
<property name="suffix" value=".jsp"/>
</bean>
</beans>
web.xml
<web-app version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
<display-name>Spring MVC Application</display-name>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>mvc-dispatcher</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>mvc-dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
How do I tell the server correctly to use the dispatcher servlet?
I tried a few things out but nothing really worked yet.

The solution for everyone who is also interested... (in scala not in java)
val server: Server = new Server(8080)
private val root: WebAppContext = new WebAppContext
root.setContextPath("/")
root.setDescriptor("src/main/webapp/web.xml")
root.setResourceBase("src/main/webapp/"))
root.setParentLoaderPriority(true)
server.setHandler(root)
server.start()
server.join()
