JWNL Wordnet - accesing derivationally related forms for verbs

Question

I use Java and JWNL library to access WordNet. Having Synset object of some verb how can I access his "derivationally related forms".

I tried these things:

Synset synset;
...
Pointer[] pointers = synset.getPointers(PointerType.DERIVED);

or

PointerTarget[] targets = synset.getTargets(PointerType.DERIVED);

but there is no result

Answer 1

It's turned out that I have to use:

Pointer[] pointers = synset.getPointers(PointerType.NOMINALIZATION);

Answer 2

Haven't worked with JWNL. But I to faced such problems.

You should remember not all words are verbs and not every verb has "derivationally related forms". Basically try more words.

Try "dash" has derivations - bolt and sprint
