I'm not 100% sure on this, but try passing in "fileItem" as opposed to
fileHandle (aka, fileItem.getItemHandle()) into the contentManager call.
FileItem extends FileItemHandle. State information might be getting lost
in the getItemHandle() call.

Hi,

I'm trying to retrieve the content of a IFileItem with the following
code:

IVersionable versionable = ...

IFileItem fileItem = (IFileItem) versionable;
IFileItemHandle fileHandle = (IFileItemHandle)
fileItem.getItemHandle();
IFileContent content = fileItem.getContent();
contentManager.retrieveContent(fileHandle, content, outputStream,
null);

But I obtain the following exception:

Exception in thread "main"
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
	at
com.ibm.team.scm.client.content.BasicVersionedContentManager.retrieveContentStream(BasicVersionedContentManager.java:1114)
	at
com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.internal.content.FileContentManager.retrieveContentStream(FileContentManager.java:160)
	at ...

What is the problem?

Alternatively, could I retrieve a versioned file directly and save
it?

Thank you.
