Why is the JDK source "Unknown Source"? [message #186858]

Whenever my application throws an exception that occurs inside the JDK
source code, the source is not available (it says "Unknown Source") so I am
unable to determine the line number or browse the source. Why is this and
how do I fix it? If I go into Preferences JRE_SRC is pointing to the
src.zip in the correct location. I am using Eclipse 3.3M1 and Java 6.0
FCS. What else should I be looking at? Exceptions thrown from my own
source are not affected by this problem.

are you sure that you are using JDK 6.0?
try this :
Window->Preferences->Java->Installed JREs
make sure that checked (default) configuration's JRE home directory
points to installed JDK

Yep, it's definitely pointing to the right directory. What else could be
causing this?

Are you refering to exceptions displayed in the stack trace? If so, it
is an indication that the java libraries you are running against aren't
compiled with debugging information. I don't think that Sun releases
the java libraries compiled with debugging information.
