Javadoc for Apache Camel not found in Spring Tool Suite (Eclipse)

My Spring Tool Suite does not find the Javadoc (or the sources) for Apache Camel. E.g. when hovering over Exchange.getIn(), the following message is shown:

Note: This element neither has attached source nor attached Javadoc and hence no Javadoc could be found.

How can I append the Javadoc? Is there any other way than including the camel sources as a dependency in Maven?

I'm using STS 3.7.2, based on Eclipse Mars 4.5.1 with camel 2.8.3 as a dependency in Maven.

Solution

  • When using eclipse with maven you can set your configurations to automatically download the source code and JavaDocs for your libraries.

    Window -> Preferenes -> Maven
-Select Download Artifact Sources
-Select Download Artifact JavaDoc
