problem with JDT Javadoc setup [message #251534]

I seem to have gotten something messed up in my Eclipse installation.
Since installing Eclipse I've installed the Nokia java development tools.
I'm now working on a standard java utility and when I click on 'Open
Declaration' in the context menu for something like 'String' I get the
list of members in the String class but the displayed page also says that
'Source Not Found'. Has something in my configuration been messed up, or
is there something that I'm missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Greg

Maybe the Nokia tools pointed your default JRE to a JRE that doesn't have
source associated with it?

Hi Greg. Do you have the source attached for the JRE? You can check this
by selecting Project/Properties/Java Build Path, Libraries Tab. Expand
JRE, expand rt.jar. Under rt.jar is Source attachment. It should list
your "src.zip" file in the location where you installed the JDK (e.g.,
for me, c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0\src.zip). It should also point to
the java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api or similar website for the Javadoc
location.

You need to have installed the JDK, not just the JRE. Hope this helps. Mark
