Problem getting list of components from Jazz Team Server

I need to fetch the components deployed on the server.

For this, I got the reference of IServerStatusRestService through JTS, and called its APIs to get the list of components (Steps detailed at the end). This works fine when I launch it through workbench. But, when the plugin is installed, it through error "missing plugin".

As a temporary fix, added the repository_service.jar in the lib folder and bundled it in the installer. Removed the plugin from the dependency list. Now the plugin gets installed. But at runtime its throwing java.lang.ArrayStoreException. If I keep the plugin in the dependency list, the connector does not get installed. But it executes from the workbench.

Is there an alternate way to get the list of components from Jazz Team Server ? (i.e., https://localhost:9443/ccm/admin#action=com.ibm.team.repository.admin.componentStatus)

*****************************************************
I used following steps to get the list of components:

1. Instantiate the team server:
ITeamServer teamServer = TeamServerFactory.INSTANCE.newTeamServerFromURL(repository.getRepositoryURI(), getCertificateHandler()); (Wrote a certificate handler to accept all certificates)

2. Set the credentials:
UsernameAndPasswordLoginInfo loginInfo = (UsernameAndPasswordLoginInfo)repository.getLoginInfo();
teamServer.setCredentials(repository.getUserId(), loginInfo.getPassword());

3. Get the REST service reference:
ITeamService service = teamServer.getService(IServerStatusRestService.class);

4. Get the method reference for components and status:
Method m = service.getMethod("getComponentsAndStatus");

5. Invoke the method:
ComponentStatusDTO[] statusDTOs = (ComponentStatusDTO[])service.invoke(service, m, new Object[]{});

6. Iterate over the components:
for(ComponentStatusDTO status:statusDTOs) System.out.println("Component ID: " + status.getComponent().getId());
