lightweight label decorator lazy instantiation problem [message #337010]

I am trying to programmatically access my ILightweightLabelDecorator using

PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getDecoratorManager().getBaseLabel Provider(id)

This returns null sometimes, seemingly because the actual class is lazily
instantiated by the decoration process. Is there a way for me to make this
more deterministic?

I am trying to access the decorator to inform it an IObservableSet of
elements that it is decorating so it can fire LabelProviderChangeEvents
appropriately when the elements change. Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,
Will
