Twitter4j, replies to a tweet

Can someone please provide me a method to gel all replies to a given status using Twitter4j? I've searched a lot but all I could find is thisquestion but I'm not able to use it.

This simply tells me that given a status A I can get the status B if A is a reply to B. But what if I only have B?

Although this question is a year old now, I've stumbled on it while having developed a solution requested over here:

You need to grab users timelines and users mentions

 TwitterInstance.getUserTimeline(pageno);
 TwitterInstance.getMentionsTimeline(pageno);

and store returned status' in an Arraylist.

  ArrayList<twitter4j.Status> statusList= new ArrayList<twitter4j.Status>();

Then you may search for you B from above and with that you can iterate through the status list with id and inReplyTo, building up the tree in memory.
