Is there a way to leave notes in library code in eclipse?

due to reasons I am working with undocumented java library code that I cannot alter in any way or write into. Im using eclipse 2020-06 and I would like to leaves some notes for myself to make things easier. Is there a way to do that? or maybe an eclipse extension?

You can use bookmarks. They work somewhat similarly to breakpoints, without pausing execution when you're debugging.

You can add them via the context menu.

If I recall, you're a bit limited by the amount of information you can add. It's basically just a single text box.

See the help section on bookmarks

Maybe there's some plugins which extend the functionality (e.g. this one for adding keyboard shortcuts)
