If you change the source dir for rt.jar to point at a private copy of the 
source then the JRE 'manager' thinks that the binaries are coming from an non 
standard place too. SO the checkbox 'use default system libraries' gets checked 
off.
This is important becuase then programs gets run with explicit classpath set 
rather than defaulting, this stops JCE from working (or anything that wants 
trusted code). You have to keep going back to the JRE settings page (and this 
in turn blows away the source binding)

The JCE problem has been fixed by allowing the bootpath to be pre-
pened/appended to. You could leave the classpath alone and instead, only change 
the source lookup path (put the desired source first on the source lookup path).

I'll re-open this. The problem here is that changing a source attachment 
creates a non-default runtime classpath. The classpath is actually unchanged - 
only the source is different.

repro steps
1. install java source code in, say, c:\javasource
2. ensure JRE set to 'use default lib path'
3. in package explorer browse to rt.jar in some project, choose any class and 
double click
4. when prompted 'rt.jar has no source code' - point eclipse at c:\javasource
5. now go back to windows preferences and look at JRE. 'use default library 
path' is checked off

This isn't a bug. You have changed the default source attachment, which means 
the libs are not in their default settings anymore. We should however display 
the source attachments in the list, so you can see what they are. This does 
not affect the bootpath computation when launching.

This is now fixed. The source attachments are displayed as children of the 
archives (same as in the build path). See bug 89935, where this problem was 
fixed.
