When WcmUsePojo activate() override method is called?

In that link, there are two java files which extends WcmUsePojo class and "activate" method is called in both files differently.

For HeroTextComponent, I think activate() is called when i press "tick" icon in dialog.

I am not sure how HtlDataSourceExample.activate() is called.

In that example - notice a dialog node resource type points to a script. This script calls the HtlDataSourceExample.activate():3

<sly data-sly-use.data="com.community.aem.dropdown.core.HtlDataSourceExample">

</sly>

The result is the Select field in the dialog is populated with a DataSouce object that is created in HtlDataSourceExample.
