How to put Custom fields to XMPP vCard Android/SMACK

Question

I am currently developing a chat application and I am using the following Vcard to store User information.

public void run() {
VCard vcard = new VCard();
vcard.setJabberId(xmppConnection.getUser());
vcard.setNickName(user.getChatId());
vcard.setFirstName(user.getUsername());
vcard.setPhoneHome("CELL", user.getMobileNo()); }

In addition to the above values I want to add new fields to the Vcard like

vcard.setNotificationType(user.getNotType())
vcard.setAlerts(user.getAlerts())

Is this possible? If so please help me on how to do it. Thanks.

I know it's an old question but maybe someone would need the answer..

You can use vCard.setField(String field, String value)

For Example :

vcard.setField("NotificationType", user.getNotType());

And to get it back :

vcard.getField("NotificationType");
