When clicking on a method that exists in a jar whose source i don't have, decompilation does not happen.
Did i miss something?
Go to Window > Preferences... > General > Editors > File Associations and select .class without source and remove Class File Viewer if it is already there by default and keep only JadClipse Class File Viewer.
