activate() not being called for outline view's tree [message #174486]

I have a GEF application descended somewhat from Shapes.
I have the main editor and an outline view.
My root editpart of the GEF editor has activate() called
and thus registers to get events from the model.
However, since I changed the event handler mechanisms to match the
back-end model's event listener architecture a while back, the outline
view is empty.
I have determined that the (outline's) DiagramTreeEditPart.activate()
isn't being called, where my main DiagramEditPart.activate() is.

What causes activate() to be called? Somehow I'm not registering
the outline view's DiagramTreeEditPart correctly, to get activate()
called.

More info:

The MyEditorOutlinePage is getting created,
and based on my main editor view, it seems like activate() should
be called at this point in the MyEditorOutlinePage.createControl() method:
getViewer().setContents(editor.getModel());
That line executes, but activate() isn't called...

I found the problem.
MyTreeEditPartFactory.createEditPart()
wasn't doing what it should - when i got it straightened
out to return a proper editPart based on modelObject,
things start to appear in the Outline view.
