I download the source code, but I don't known how to start with it.

Thanks,

Best Regards,

Peter

You can use this as a starting point. It details how to check out the source
code for the Eclipse debug platform as well as how to actually selfhost:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/~checkout~/platform -debug-home/project/workspace.html

With these instructions you will be able to debug launch a second instance
of Eclipse from within Eclipse.
Then you can do something like: "Window -> Customize Perspective ->
> Shortcuts" in the second instance, go to first instance of Eclipse, go to
> the Debug perspective, go to the Debug view, pause the Main thread and
> find out which class implements said functionality by looking at the debug
> stack trace.
