Programmatically configure a custom entity to use MS CRM Activity Feeds

Haven't been able to find any info on this. I'm creating a new custom entity and I want (need) to allow activity feeds via C# code. I can find information on how to set it up interactively but not programmatically.

•What do I need to set when I define my entity?

•Do I need to add the record wall to the form or will that automatically be done when I enable activity feeds for the entity?

•If I need to take care of the record wall, is there a fieldtype/id for it not listed here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc906186.aspx

It looks like you can do this via the API:

To enable an entity for activity feeds, use the msdyn_PostConfig entity. Use the SetStateRequest message to activate the feeds for an entity. Set the msdyn_PostConfig.msdyn_ConfigureWall attribute to true to enable the wall on the entity form.

The MSDN documentation has additional details.
