Eclipse tool tip/method info - java

I've been looking around the forum for ways to solve this, but nothing seems to do it.
I want eclipse to show the information of the methods, but it doesn't. It should appear to the right side of this box:
I've tried downloading Java SE 8 API documentation and adding it to the installed JRE Javadoc location, but it still doesn't work.
Anyone else who's had this problem and managed to solve it?
Thanks

Tizen package manger not recognizing JDK

First and foremost I am very novice to this so I may not understand all technical terms or how to do everything but will try to and ask followup questions if I have. I've been trying to install TiZen studio, which worked fine until I tried to open the package manager. I can open Tizen Studio, but cannot open the package manager. I've tried to redownload latest jdks etc and read that it may also be due to wrongly implemented environment variables, so I tried to set them but nothing works. Error message when trying to open package-manager
My systemvariables looks like these;these are my PATH variables. Am I doing something obvious wrong? I am sorry for the inconvenience, and what environment variables should I set, where and how?
Computer runs on windows 10!
UPDATE: Can't open Tizen studio anymore. Might've happened sometime after I've changed those environtment variables or something. Not sure, and can't make out what the log means. This is the log I got from the last attempted startup. I know it's tons of text, but I have no idea what it means or what to look for, and maybe someone knows what to do or what anything means.
Thanks in advance!
Regards
I had similar issue and stated in this question that later I updated with solution.
For your issues, here's probable solution that might help you.
You need to set JAVA_HOME variable with value of correct version of JDK that Tizen studio supports. This Guide states the requirements.
Let me know if it helped you.

How to show the result on Tooltip while running java file - IntelliJ IDEA

In this video, Venkat Subramaniam is running simple java file and he is able to see the result on screen as the given below image. Does anybody know which tool he is using ?
Its actually a wonderful feature, but unfortunately this only work for Textmate.
Here you could find how to set it up for Textmate: https://www.ivonet.nl/2017/11/07/textmate-get-run-output-as-tooltip/
For IntelliJ IDEA there no such thing. But, a one guy has tried to do it in InteliJ Idea with a plugin which is available at https://github.com/jcraane/intellij-tooltip-runner. But, it is outdated and not working in recent releases.

Where have the Eclipse online javadocs gone?

For as long as I've been working on Eclipse plug-ins when I have wanted to read some documentation I have always just googled it. This worked fine up until about a week ago when I started being met with this message:
| Topic not found
The topic that you have requested is not available. The link may be wrong, or you may not have the corresponding product feature installed. This online help only includes documentation for features that are installed.
Today this has tripped me up on the following queries:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?&q=ITreeContentProvider
http://www.google.co.uk/search?&q=IObjectActionDelegate
Sometimes trying different versions of the Eclipse docs works, sometimes it doesn't.
I had assumed this was just a glitch but I'm still noticing this issue, where have the docs gone?
Two suggestions without using Google:
Use the Eclipse documentation directly!
Use Bkekko with my Eclipse slashtag: https://blekko.com/ws/ITreeContentProvider+/timkrueger/eclipse
This issue is now resolved. I contacted the Eclipse web admin but didn't hear back so whether Eclipse fixed the issue or Google figured it out, i'm not sure.

How to use JCurses in Eclipse

I'm trying to develop a program that simulates the Terminal in Linux. My problem is that I can't clear the screen in the default Eclipse console.
After a lot of searching, I've found a library called JCurses that can do the task. But I can't get it working in Eclipse.
I've searched for a tutorial, but it seems there is not.
Can any one help me how to use it?
OK, I found it.
I have used an external Java console. It's called Eric:

It's very easy to use. It could be run flawlessly on Eclipse although it's said to be for Netbeans only.
Thanks guys very much

Netbeans IDE problem on MacOSX

I installed Netbeans IDE on Mac OS X few weeks ago. In the code-completion window while writing Java code, I always get the proper full list of possible code completions but in the window that pops-up which is supposed to display JDK documentation entry (all details) for each possible completion, it always say that JDK documentation was not found! It never happened to me when I worked on Windows.
I even downloaded and explicitly added JDK docs library to Netbeans library but to no use. Has anybody faced such problem? Please help! Thanks a lot in advance.
Well since nobody else answered and I had the same issue, but wasn't motivated enough to figure it out, I tracked down the way to do it... look here.
The only changes I did was to use the latest JavaDoc instead of the 1.5 one and to use Java Platforms in step 3 (I am using Netbeans 6.5, I guess the menu structure changed from when he did it).
