I'm trying to retrieve the history of a snapshot.

    What is the correct way to get the full IFileItem/IFolder path 
    in the context of the recent changeset of a component baseline?


    Using information from searching this forum and 
    the wordpress and SCM Lounge site's mentioned in this forum,
    I've come up with the following method.
    But it doesn't seem to work correctly.
   
 What am I doing wrong?

1) From the string UUID get object UUID using
       UUID uuid = UUID.valueOf(id)
2) From the UUID get handle using
       IBaselineSetHandle snapshotHandle = (IBaselineSetHandle) IBaselineSet.ITEM_TYPE.createItemHandle(uuid, null)
3) From handle get instance
       IBaselineSet snapshot = (IBaselineSet) itemManager.fetchCompleteItem(snapshotHandle, IItemManager.DEFAULT, monitor)

if it has state I first try
      iFolder = (IFolder) versionableManager.fetchCompleteState(handle, monitor);
if it only has itemId then I use
      iFolder = (IFolder) previousConfiguration.fetchCompleteItem(handle, monitor);

get configuration of changeHistory being iterated over and containing changeSet

int                kind   = change.kind()
IVersionableHandle before = change.beforeState()
IVersionableHandle after  = change.afterState()

based on kind use before, after or both to determine paths
get parent handle for IVersionable
get IFolder for handle using configuration ( at this point I get ItemNotFound exceptions from various IFolderhandle to IFolder queries )
If I do not get an exception add current IFolder of IFileItem to my configuration item/state map

Keep looking up parent and finding it in configuration map to get name building up path.
The problem with this is the error's in previous step cause items to be missing in this baseline configuration current state map
