Android Source Code Plug-in

Question

I've been using an eclipse plugin that allows me to view android source code for up to android 2.2. I recently cleared my eclipse folder and copied a fresh instance, thereby loosing the plug-in. I don't seem to remember what the plug-in was called and where I installed it from.

I'm not looking for downloading and building the entire source tree of android. This plug-in would allow me to step into android sources when I wanted.

Does anyone have a link to this plug-in location?

Answer 1

You probably mean adt-addons project. The direct link to plugin you're searching is: http://adt-addons.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/source/com.android.ide.eclipse.source.update/

Answer 2

In the properties of your android-ver.jar you can set the location of the sources. I think it is enough to download only frameworks project of the AOSP to attach it as a source of a android.jar library.
