Where to to get source code for Eclipse plugins [message #871278]

I want to debug the PDT plugin from the standard Eclipse PDT bundle. When I install the plugin through "Install New Software" it installs only the binary, but not the source code. When I go to debug some command from this plugin (for ex. Source->Format on a PHP file) and come to a method from that plugin (org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui.internal.format.StructuredFormattingStrategy) I cannot go inside it. I get "the jar of this class file belongs to container External Plugins which does not allow modifications to source attachments on it's entries". Is this because I do not have the source code for that binary?

I am sure there must be a way to automatically include the source code for any installed plugin. Help me?

I found the solution. You need Web Tools Platform SDK, which is installed through Install New Software from repository download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/indigo/
