How to select a treeview node from code in eclipse-plugin

I have a custom outline in my Eclipse plug-in, implemented using class TreeViewer and I created this outline using this code:

public class MyOutlinePage extends ContentOutlinePage
(...)
            Object[] data = (...)
            TreeViewer treeViewer = getTreeViewer();
            treeViewer.setInput(data);

And after set input I need to select one specific element in outline. For example, I need to select the element data[2] in the outline. It must be the same that I click in the element using mouse.

The tree viewer has a setSelection method to programmatically change its selection. If you wrap you domain object into a StructuredSeletion the corresponding TreeItem will be selected.

treeViewer.setSelection( new StructuredSelection( data[2] ) );
