Either the attached Javadoc is not correct, or the browser can't be
found/opened.

The easiest way to set up a JRE, is to download the Java [6] SDK, which
also contains the source and then add it via Java > Installed JREs
preference page. After that, verify that your project uses the newly
installed JRE (see project's 'Java Build Path' properties).

If you only want to add the downloaded Javadoc, you select the 'rt.jar'
in the Package Explorer and open its properties. There you can set the
source and Javadoc attachments.
