I probably don't understand your question at all but all I can say is that normally .jar files contain compiled java code (.class files) and they don't contain any comment; it is stripped away by the compiler.

on placing the mouse over the Calender then the comment is showing which is in the rt.jar in the jre in the class called java.util.Calender if you open the src folder in the jdk then we can see the same comment in the src

this same comment is showing when placing the mouse over the Calender

If you want to see javadoc comments for the stuff in your .jar you have to tell eclipse where it can either find the sources or the javadocs for the classes in that .jar. The distribution probably came without them (or you haven't really read the installation pages).

hi,
just put like this
/**
*Hello there

*/
then this will come where import those class or method
that's all
thank you
