com.ibm.team.scm.common.ComponentNotInWorkspaceException

Hi,
I am getting the following exception when i tried to get the IConfiguration for a IComponentHandle.

Code I tried:
***********

IItemManager itemManager = repository.itemManager();
IComponentSearchCriteria comSearch = IComponentSearchCriteria.FACTORY.newInstance();
List<IComponentHandle> comHandles = workspaceManager.findComponents(comSearch, Integer.MAX_VALUE, null);
List<IComponent> iComponents = itemManager.fetchCompleteItems(comHandles, Integer.MAX_VALUE, null);
IComponentHandle componentHandle = iComponents.get(0);
IWorkspaceHandle wshandle = handles.get(0);
IWorkspaceConnection workspaceConnection = workspaceManager.getWorkspaceConnection(wshandle, null);
IConfiguration configuration = workspaceConnection.configuration(componentHandle);

Exception :
**********

How to avoid this exception? Also is it possible to get IConfiguration for a component not loaded in the workspace?
