Android: How to create EAP wifi configuration programmatically?

Question

I know how to create Open/WEP/PSK/PSK2 configuration programmatically.

ex.

WifiConfiguration conf = new WifiConfiguration();
conf.SSID = "ssid";
conf.preSharedKey = "\"password\"";
conf.status = WifiConfiguration.Status.ENABLED;        

conf.allowedAuthAlgorithms.set(WifiConfiguration.AuthAlgorithm.OPEN);

conf.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.WEP40); 
conf.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.WEP104);
conf.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.TKIP);
conf.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.CCMP);

conf.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.NONE);

conf.allowedPairwiseCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.PairwiseCipher.TKIP);
conf.allowedPairwiseCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.PairwiseCipher.CCMP);

conf.allowedProtocols.set(WifiConfiguration.Protocol.WPA);
conf.allowedProtocols.set(WifiConfiguration.Protocol.RSN);

int res = wifi.addNetwork(conf);
boolean b = wifi.enableNetwork(res, true);

But how do I create one for '802.1x EAP'? Looking into the source code at: ..\packages\apps\Settings\src\com\android\settings\wifi\WifiDialog.java

case AccessPoint.SECURITY_EAP:
                config.allowedKeyManagement.set(KeyMgmt.WPA_EAP);
                config.allowedKeyManagement.set(KeyMgmt.IEEE8021X);
                config.eap.setValue((String) mEapMethod.getSelectedItem());

                config.phase2.setValue((mPhase2.getSelectedItemPosition() == 0) ? "" :
                        "auth=" + mPhase2.getSelectedItem());
                config.ca_cert.setValue((mEapCaCert.getSelectedItemPosition() == 0) ? "" :
                        KEYSTORE_SPACE + Credentials.CA_CERTIFICATE +
                        (String) mEapCaCert.getSelectedItem());
                config.client_cert.setValue((mEapUserCert.getSelectedItemPosition() == 0) ? "" :
                        KEYSTORE_SPACE + Credentials.USER_CERTIFICATE +
                        (String) mEapUserCert.getSelectedItem());
                config.private_key.setValue((mEapUserCert.getSelectedItemPosition() == 0) ? "" :
                        KEYSTORE_SPACE + Credentials.USER_PRIVATE_KEY +
                        (String) mEapUserCert.getSelectedItem());
                config.identity.setValue((mEapIdentity.length() == 0) ? "" :
                        mEapIdentity.getText().toString());
                config.anonymous_identity.setValue((mEapAnonymous.length() == 0) ? "" :
                        mEapAnonymous.getText().toString());
                if (mPassword.length() != 0) {
                    config.password.setValue(mPassword.getText().toString());
                }

Seems to do the work but 'config.eap' is not accessable from my application.

Is there a way to configure EAP types or is it not possible?
