MapActivity cannot be resolved to a type

Issue

I'm busy trying to get the MapView included in my Android project. I'm following the MapView tutorial on the Android developer website but I'm getting an error:

'MapActivity cannot be resolved to a type'

I tried pressing Ctrl+Shift+O to auto import all classes but it's not helping. When I try to include the Maps libary manually it gives this error:

'The import com.google.android cannot be resolved'

I have added the following line (see below) to the Manifest and my target is API 7 (Platform: 2.1).

<uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" />

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!!!

Google API is a third party SDK. Choose third party in packages manager.
