How can I enable the Task List in Eclipse for a Java Project?

My TODO tasks are not showing up automatically in Eclipse. I'm using Eclipse Helios Service Release 2.

I have a standard Java project. Eclipse detects my // TODO and /* TODO */ tasks, because it displays the 开发者_如何转开发task icon to the left of the correct source code line. But the Task List pane is empty. The filter is empty, and I have it set to show All.

I also double-checked Window - Preferences - Java - Task List to make sure it was enabled.

Any clue how to make the Task List work?

You have to open the Tasks view (Window -> Show View -> (Other... -> General ->) Tasks) and not the Task List view (differences are explained here).
