Jetty How to Create Custom WebSocket

Looking around online, I have found that the way to create a socket is to create a class with the @WebSocket annotation and use the desirable annotated methods for events. In order for this socket to be used, a socket handler is used like so:

import org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.server.WebSocketHandler;
import org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.servlet.WebSocketServletFactory;

import rsvp.RSVPSocket;

public class RSVPWebSocketHandler extends WebSocketHandler
{

    @Override
    public void configure ( WebSocketServletFactory factory )
    {
        factory.register( MySocket.class );
    }

}

My question is: if "MySocket" class has a constructor that has parameters, how can I make the factory invoke that one correctly?

You can create socket from your servlet. For example:

@WebServlet(name = "MyWebSocketServlet", urlPatterns = {"/myurl"})
public class MyWebSocketServlet extends WebSocketServlet {
    private final static int IDLE_TIME = 60 * 1000;

    @Override
    public void configure(WebSocketServletFactory factory) {
        factory.getPolicy().setIdleTimeout(IDLE_TIME);
        factory.setCreator(new CustomWebSocketCreator());
    }
}

And CustomWebSocketCreator:

public class CustomWebSocketCreator implements WebSocketCreator {

    @Override
    public Object createWebSocket(ServletUpgradeRequest req, ServletUpgradeResponse resp) {
        return new MySocket();
    }
}

According to Jetty doc you shall override createWebSocket method of your own custom derivation of the WebSocketCreator class (pass the instance of your creator to configure)
