I am very new to eclipse and I have read lots of the documentation, and
seem to be well on my way. But I can NOT seem to get the API javadocs to
open to the requested javadoc file by right clicking on a method or
variable.
I need to be able to look at relevant javadoc information in its entirety.
But it seems all I am offered is javadoc info related to just the item
selected.
Basically, how do I open the javadoc for a whole class?
Hate to ask, and I am sure its simple as every other IDE I have used does
this by right-click. But Eclipse does not seem to.
Thanks for you help!

Try selecting what you are interested in and press F2.
To get the whole doc you should follow similar steps as for JDK. You
should select each JAR library from your project, right button ,
properties and set its JavaDoc location. Try this location:
http://dev.eclipse.org/help21/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.p latform.doc.isv/reference/api/
(Note: I haven't tested this myself).
Hope this helps,
Chemi.

Actually I am looking for stuff that is part of PDE or other Eclipse APIs.
Actually I'd like to be able to right click any variable and have the
javadoc OPEN so I can read it. I know its in the envrionment because I
get a javadoc tooltip. But where is the whole doc??
