hyponyms.print()

[karthik]

Hi

Was just able to Run the Examples.class ,

1) The 'hyponyms.print()' in   
    demonstrateTreeOperation
    prints  everything,
  
    Is there anything in the API
    which can either  Filter the Results

example :- watch

returned results should contain
from hyponyms.print()

watch, ticker
analog_watch
digital_watch
hunting_watch
pendulum_watch
pocket_watch
stem-winder
wrist_watch

Only

2)Also requred  code snippet to convert the same
   Filtered returned results into Array or....,so the
   same can be used for diplay on the JSP Page.

I browsed thru the Form and could not find any thing similar..

Please Reply ASAP

Thx in advance

There isn't anything in the API that filters. A PointerTargetTree object is composed of PointerTargetTreeNode objects through the PointerUtils.makePointerTargetTreeList() function. These nodes  are extension of PointerTargetNode which made of both the PointerTarget object (i.e. Synset object) and the PointerType, in this case PointerType.HYPONYM and the information related to it.

I have tried to modify the PointerUtils.makePointerTargetTreeList() function but I have been unable to make it work for Word only. I think the best option is to create a new PointerTarget object which only hold information about the lemma rather than using the Synset object.

I have also tried to use an ArrayList instead of PointerTargetNodeList to create the hypernym/hyponym tree but have so far failed to make it work.

I hope this helps.
