friends_getList( friendListId ) method not working i.e throws exception

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. From a web application,  
2. create FacebookJaxbRestClient object
3. get valid session key
4. call friends_getList( friendListId ) where friendListId is a valid Id.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output is that we receive friends Id present in that friendListId.
Actual output is 
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet GetSessionKeyServlet threw exception
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: given invalid friendListId 1180442313509

This is the code snippet that has been used.

public List<Long> getFriendsOfFriendListGroup( long friendListId,
FacebookJaxbRestClient facebookJaxbRestClient )
    {
        List<Long> friendsUID = null;
        FriendsGetResponse response = null;

        try
        {
            facebookJaxbRestClient.friends_getList( friendListId );
            System.out.println( "Document returned by friends_getList : "
                    + facebookJaxbRestClient.getRawResponse() );
            response = (FriendsGetResponse) facebookJaxbRestClient
                    .getResponsePOJO();
            friendsUID = response.getUid();
        } catch ( FacebookException exception )
        {
            exception.printStackTrace();
        }
        return friendsUID;
    }

To fix this issue replace 
public T friends_getList( Long friendListId ) throws FacebookException {
        if ( null != friendListId && 0L <= friendListId ) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException( "given invalid friendListId " + friendListId );
        }
        return callMethod( FacebookMethod.FRIENDS_GET, newPair( "flid", friendListId ) );
    }

with 

public T friends_getList( Long friendListId ) throws FacebookException {
        if ( ( null == friendListId ) || ( 0L > friendListId ) ) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException( "given invalid friendListId " + friendListId );
        }
        return callMethod( FacebookMethod.FRIENDS_GET, newPair( "flid", friendListId ) );
    }

in ExtensibleClient<T> class

This is also occurring in v3.0.1 of the SDK.

This is because facebook no longer supports getting friends list of any other 
id except yours. Replaced the ID with your own id. If it works then this issue 
should be closed since this is a facebook limitation
