Description Andreas Sewe CLA 2016-04-01 04:43:25 EDT 
Currently, the Debug view offers no tooltip when hovering over a stacktrace element like "Main.main(String[]) line : 1426".

In most cases, this is not a problem, as one can always look at the source in the associated Java editor.

If, however, JDT cannot find the sources of the method in question (showing the "Source not found / Edit Source Lookup path..." editor), it's really hard to guess what JAR needs to be added, as one does not know what package one is looking for. Here, a tooltip would be really helpful.
