How can I skip JRE code when debugging in Eclipse?

Try Eclipse menu : Window -> Preferences -> Java|Debug|Step Filtering.

Toggle "Use Step Filters", you may choose the step filters from the checkbox list.

E.g. check "java.*", then the JRE method String.xxx() will be skipped.

You can add types built on the fly, or types that you have dificulty to find going to:

Debug Window

Right click on desired class, click on Filter Type:

In next time your Step Filter will skip this type.
