How to run the external compare tool in RTC using API?

What API is available to run an external compare tool from a custom plugin (similar to how this is done in the RTC Eclipse client)?

I found that I can get some details specified in the Window>Preferences>Team>Jazz Source Control>External Compare Tool using ExternalCompareToolManager:

//com.ibm.team.filesystem.rcp.core.internal.compare.ExternalCompareToolManager
IExternalCompareTool extTool = ExternalCompareToolManager.getCustomTool();

However this doesn't provide means to launch the tool itself.

Thanks!
