Referenced Javadoc not showing in Eclipse

Question

I am developping a library for Android applications in Eclipse and I have added some Javadoc to the classes and methods that are visible to my users. I've generated the javadoc with Project->Generate Javadoc... Then, it created a doc folder containing all my Javadoc.

In an Android application using my library, I've referenced the javadoc by right-cliking my library in the Referenced Libraries section of my application in the Package Explorer and going into Properties. Then, in the section Javadoc Location, I've linked the created doc folder. When I click on Validate..., it tells me

Location is likely valid. Files 'package-list' and 'index.html' have been found.

And if I click Open in Browser, I can see all my Javadoc perfectly.

But when I want to see the Javadoc in Eclipse by hovering a class or method of my library that I know has Javadoc, it tells me

Note: This element neither has attached source nor attached Javadoc and hence no Javadoc could be found.

I've tried restarting Eclipse, but it didn't help. Why can't I see my Javadoc?

The section Referencing unpacked javadocs of the best answer in the following post did the trick!
