Java class: ezvcard.property.Classification

VCard vcard = new VCard();
//sample values: PUBLIC, PRIVATE, CONFIDENTIAL
vcard.setClassification("PUBLIC");

CLIENTPIDMAP

Maps a globally-unique URI to a PID parameter value. The PID parameter can be set on any property where multiple instances are allowed (such as EMAIL or ADR, but not N because only 1 instance of N is allowed). It allows an individual property instance to be uniquely identifiable.

The CLIENTPIDMAP property and the PID parameter are used during the synchronization (merging) process of two versions of the same vCard. For example, if the user has a copy of her vCard on her desktop computer and her smart phone, and she makes different modifications to each copy, then the two copies could be synchronized in order to merge all the changes into a single, new vCard.

VCard vcard = new VCard();

Hobby hobby = new Hobby("hockey");
hobby.setLevel(HobbyLevel.LOW);
vcard.addHobby(hobby);

Java class: ezvcard.property.Impp

VCard vcard = new VCard();

vcard.addImpp(impp);

//static factory methods
impp = Impp.msn("[email protected]");
vcard.addImpp(impp);

2.1 | 3.0 | 4.0 | RFC 6715 p.5

Java class: ezvcard.property.Interest

VCard vcard = new VCard();

Interest interest = new Interest("hockey");
interest.setLevel(InterestLevel.HIGH);

byte data[] = ...
key = new Key(data, KeyType.PGP);
vcard.addKey(key);

//plain text value
key = new Key();
key.setText("...", KeyType.PGP);
vcard.addKey(key);

VCard vcard = ...
for (Key key : vcard.getKeys()){
  KeyType contentType = key.getContentType(); //e.g. "application/pgp-keys"

  String url = key.getUrl();
  if (url != null){
    //property value is a URL
    continue;
  }
  
  byte[] data = key.getData();
  if (data != null){
    //property value is binary data
    continue;
  }

Java class: ezvcard.property.Kind

VCard vcard = new VCard();

Kind kind = Kind.individual();
vcard.setKind(kind);

VCard vcard = ...
Kind kind = vcard.getKind();
if (kind.isIndividual()){
  //vCard contains information on an individual person
} else if (kind.isGroup()){
  //vCard contains information on a group of people
}
//etc

LABEL

Defines the exact text to put on the mailing label when sending snail mail to the person.

Note that, when using ez-vcard, instances of this class should NOT be added to the VCard object. Instead, use the Address.setLabel() method to assign a mailing label to its corresponding ADR property.

2.1 vCard 2.1 p.12 | 3.0 RFC 2426 p.13 | 4.0*

Java class: ezvcard.property.Label

* The label property is not supported in vCard version 4.0. Instead, labels are included as parameters to their corresponding ADR properties. When marshalling a vCard, ez-vcard will use either the LABEL property or the LABEL parameter, depending on the target vCard version.

Orphaned labels

ez-vcard defines an "orphaned label" as a LABEL property that could not be assigned to an address (a LABEL is assigned to an address if its list of TYPE parameters is identical to the address's list of TYPE parameters). The VCard.addOrphanedLabel() method can be used to add such labels to a vCard, but its use is strongly discouraged. The VCard.getOrphanedLabels() method can be useful when parsing version 2.1 or 3.0 vCards in order to retrieve any label properties that the parser could not assign to an address.

LANG

vcard.addLogo(logo);

//binary data
byte data[] = ...
logo = new Logo(data, ImageType.PNG);
vcard.addLogo(logo);

VCard vcard = ...
for (Logo logo : vcard.getLogos()){
  ImageType contentType = logo.getContentType(); //e.g. "image/png"

  String url = logo.getUrl();
  if (url != null){
    //property value is a URL
    continue;
  }
  
  byte[] data = logo.getData();
  if (data != null){
    //property value is binary data
    continue;
  }
