There is nothing special in the LDAP API which differ from any OSGi
complient project. It's all about declaring the bundles and packages you
want to import in your application, like what we do in Studio :

...
            <Import-Package>
 net.sf.ehcache,
 org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.name,
 org.apache.directory.server.core.api.interceptor.context,
 org.apache.directory.api.ldap.schema.manager.impl
            </Import-Package>
           
            <Require-Bundle>
 org.apache.directory.server.core.api;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.server.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.server.ldif.partition;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.server.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.server.xdbm.partition;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.server.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.api.asn1.api;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.api.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.api.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.api.ldap.schema;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.api.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.api.ldap.extras.util;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.api.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.api.util;bundle-version="${org.apache.directory.api.bundleversion}",
 org.apache.directory.studio.openldap.common.ui,
...

Looking at each API jar's MANIFEST.MF will help you to see what is
exported (better use a tool !). It's extremelly likely that every
package you will use is already exported.

So as you can see, no magic here.
