My MANIFEST.MF looks like this:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
Bundle-Name: %plugin.name
Bundle-SymbolicName: com.example.cassandra;singleton:=true
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0.qualifier
Bundle-Vendor: %plugin.providerName
Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: JavaSE-1.7
Bundle-Localization: plugin
Bundle-ActivationPolicy: lazy
Require-Bundle: com.yambina.edm.model;bundle-version="1.0.0",
org.eclipse.core.runtime,
org.eclipse.osgi
Bundle-Activator: com.example.cassandra.CassandraActivator
Bundle-ClassPath: .,
abacus-util-all-jdk7-0.8.9.jar
Export-Package:
...

Note the org.eclipse.osgi required bundle. It include the classes in package org.osgi seen below

I have this import in my code

import org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator;
import org.osgi.framework.BundleContext;

These do not resolve. So it appears I have correctly defined my dependency but that the IDE is not loading it.

What else do I need to do to get this to work?

Not sure why I am asking this question here. I went through the questions I asked on PDE in this forum since 2009. Not a single one was answered, just some responses from people having the same issues.
I have a couple of machines with the same project checked out from the same git repo. Some have these resolution of class problems and some don't. We even reverted to zipping our eclipse IDE installation and distributing it so all have exactly the same Eclipse setup. And yet p2 problems persist and no one can answer why. In 7 years it has got no better.
