As a workaround, you could create a temporary project (like the
"External Plug-in Libraries" created by PDE) and add those classes to
the classpath of the Project.
I'm cc-ing the JDT forum where you may get more helpful answers.

Right, creating a project with those classes is the way to go as 'Open
