You can put the cursor on a class or method in the source code and hit
Shift-F2 to open the JavaDoc for that class/method.
Also, you can open the Javadoc view and it will show JavaDoc content for
whatever class/method the cursor is on in the code editor.

HTH,
Eric

know its existence

I don't understand - if you don't know about a class how do you know you
are looking for it?
You can browse all packages: If you open the JavaDoc for a class, click
on the "Frames" link at the top of the page and it will open the
complete JavaDoc for the library, with all packages and classes listed.

HTH,
Eric

Yes, how can I get information about something I don't know. So, I would
like to know which class/method I need to use.

I would like to get api JDK specification in the help located inside the
eclipse help, how to gonfigure that ?
