Hi Carlos, I believe you're using a mason.jar file as a dependency, right? What you described indicates that Eclipse cannot locate the Java sourcefiles. Go to your project settings, click configure build path, then set the Java source lookup to where you have the Mason sources. Note that Mason has a few 3rd party libraries as dependencies, so if you want to be able to debug them too you have to download manually and add those libraries to your source lookup path too. Hope that helps. Best, Richard -- Richard O.
