I have two installations of Eclipse, 3.5 and 3.6. In 3.6 when I open attached javadoc it uses the internal web browser, in 3.5 it uses the external Firefox (which I prefer).
I can't find the preference to control this behaviour. Please can anyone help me out here with this little question?
To locate the Javadoc, browse to your User folder (on Windows 7 this is C:\Users\*Username*), then browse to sunspotfrcsdk/doc/javadoc. Double click on the index. html file to open it in your default webbrowser.
"Right Click the JAR file in Project Explorer -> Properties -> From the left pane choose Javadoc Location -> enter the URL of your jar documentation. Generally you can Google for: javadoc lib-name and then pickup the URL of the first site suggested by Google - going up a level." Hope this helps!
To see the javadoc of a class having attached source in eclipse: select Window -> show view -> javadoc (or alt + shift + q, j). then in the javadoc view, right click -> open attached javadoc (or shift + F2), this will display the javadoc of the class in the internal browser of eclipse.
The preference you're looking for is in the "General" section; it's called "Web Browser".
A good way to find prefs is to type a relevant word into the search box above the preference tree - see the screenshot.
