How to edit Minecraft source files

[Mister Cow]

Is there a way to edit the Minecraft source files (Minecraft.java ect.) using eclipse IDE? I cannot edit referenced libraries so is there a way to edit the source folders. I have seen other modders do this though they never provided instruction on how.

If you need to ask how to do it then you are not in a position to do it.

Why do you want to do so?

What I would like to do is modify the dirt blocks so it is burnable, and add code in the game loop
