Is there an "scm get file" equivalent for symbolic links?
I'm processing changes in a change set in a python script. I have each change's UUID and state ID. For a file add change, I run the scm get file command to get the file from RTC. I need to handle symbolic link add changes in my script. How can I do that? I tried running scm get file on the symbolic link change's UUID and state id as I do for a file add change:
lscm get file -r ** _Y13CoJp9EeqXF4arUMsnAw _2TH005sgEeq-JOzIQciwww "*"
The scm get file command fails with exit code 30 and the following message:
So the scm get file command doesn't look to work for symbolic links. Is there an scm command to a get symbolic link based on the symbolic link's UUID and state ID?

Comments The scm get change completes successfully and downloads the specified symbolic link. However, instead of creating a symbolic link, it creates a text file containing the symbolic link's target. I would have expected (and need) scm get change to instead create a symbolic link. I'm running
c:\>scm --version on Windows 10 with symbolic link creation enabled.
