How to Ctrl+Shift+Space shortcut shows method help on eclipse?

Question

In eclipse, when mouse pointer moves over on method help hint shows. I want to show method help on eclipse like Visual Studio. When I pressed Ctrl+Shift+Space when cursor inside method parenthesis, I want to see method help as hint. How can I do it? Which shortcut's setting should I change?

PS: Netbeans IDE completley works as I wanted, but I want to do same in eclipse.

You can use the JavaDoc View (View -> Show View -> JavaDoc / Alt+Shift+Q,J) to show the JavaDoc of the method your text cursor is inside. Or place the mouse cursor over the method name and the JavaDoc will be presented as tooltip.

F2 (Show Tooltip decription) will give you the JavaDoc as mentioned in your question update. Ctrl-Shift-Space gives you Context Information (e.g. list of all possible methods) and you probably won't lose this due to new declaration.
