I have installed Plugin Development Environment on my Eclipse 3.8 via http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno update site. Now in PDE projects under the “Plugin Dependencies” tree I see that all PDE JARs have attached source set to the same JARs. Yet, the JARs do not contain any sources – only class files.

Because of this I see no Javadoc for PDE/JFace classes and get ugly arg0, arg1, etc for auto-generated code.

Where and how can I get sources or Javadoc for PDE/JFace?

    First, I tried to reproduce your problem.

    • downloaded Eclipse Platform Runtime Binary from the location you provided
    • installed Plugin Development Tools -> Neither source nor Javadocs

    Now, the following worked for me:

    • Help -> Install new Software
    • Work with ‘The Eclipse Project Updates’ (not the Juno main site!)
    • installed ‘Eclipse RCP Plugin Developer Resources’

    This gave me sources and Javadocs for all the Plugin Dependencies in a newly created ‘Hello World’ Plugin Project. The size of the Eclipse installation increase by only 10 MB to a total of 116 MB.
