this returns a CategoryHandle

processing for variable=Filed Against attrib type=category kind=
                attribute id=category, type=category value=com.ibm.team.workitem.common.internal.model.impl.CategoryHandleImpl@1e5a5dc (stateId: [UUID _JZUkkFT4EeKUlbfIaeweIA], itemId: [UUID _JYca0lT4EeKUlbfIaeweIA], origin: com.ibm.team.repository.client.internal.TeamRepository@1706eb7, immutable: true)

this is the specific category handle.. so you need to resolve this object. to get its details loaded.

              ICategoryHandle ich = (ICategoryHandle)(attribute.getValue(auditableClient, workItem, null));
              ICategory ic = (ICategory) repository.itemManager().fetchCompleteItem(ich,
                            IItemManager.REFRESH, monitor); 
             System.out.println("Category name="+ic.getName());
