How can I generally add javadoc in eclipse for different packages.
As an example:
I want to add all the javadoc for hibernate in eclipse, but I don't know how.
I've read this article How to add hibernate javadocs in Eclipse? but I don't want to get hibernate tools because I already use STS and I don't understand the other comment.
I'm using eclipse on Ubuntu.

Bear the following in mind when using Add Javadoc comment (Alt+Shift+J): To add a comment to a field, position the cursor on the field declaration. To add a comment to a method, position the cursor anywhere in the method or on its declaration.
Step 1 − Open eclipse, select the option Project →Generate Javadoc. Step 2 − Select the javadoc.exe file from the bin folder of java installation directory, select the destination folder for the generated java doc and select Next. finish button.
Add a Javadoc using context actionsPlace the caret at the declaration in the editor, press Alt+Enter , and select Add Javadoc from the list.

Another option is to use maven/m2eclipse to manage your dependencies.
It's way overkill if you have the problem for 1 or 2 libraries, but worth considering if you have a dozen.
Most open source projects publish both the jar and the -src.jar artifacts, and m2eclipse can go and download automatically the source for you.

Run
mvn eclipse:eclipse -DdownloadJavadocs=true -DdownloadSources=true
and refresh your eclipse module. Voila! No need for any eclipse plugins (unless you are already using them).
