I'm having trouble getting joint references from a CAWeightTag.
I can get joint count, weight count, and weights themseves, but not a reference to a joint.
using wtag->GetJoint(i, NULL ) should return a joint ref, but fails, I have tried passing the BaseDocument reference even though the docs say I can pass null

please help.

you can pass NULL for example when the joint is not attached to a document. However, you should, if you can always pass a Document I highly assume.

resolved
I was calling doc->Polygonize();
which changes changes to the joints as well.
