Java type hierarchy in Eclipse shows "Source not found"

I find Java classes using ctrl + shift + t, I click on the class I want to see (like Scanner or Random in java.Utils) for the type hierarchy, and it opens a tab that says "Source not found." I read an answer that says my build path is wrong, but my programs use them without issue. Can I fix this to start learning about the type hierarchy, or am I doing something wrong?

Your IDE can find compiled Java classes, but not Java source.



You can find it src.zip

in your JDK folder - try connecting to your Eclipse JRE / JDK setup.
