UserInfo Property
Collection of named registration fields.
Syntax
public XMPPUserInfoMap getUserInfo(); public void setUserInfo(XMPPUserInfoMap userInfo);
Remarks
Before a registration can be attempted, the application should use the QueryRegister method to poll the host to which the user wishes to register. This will gather all of the necessary fields that the user must send to the server, and will populate the UserInfo collection accordingly. After a successful query, all entries in UserInfo values will be empty strings.
The possible registration fields are defined in the Jabber protocol specification as follows:
| instructions | Special instructions sent from the server. |
| username | The username to be associated with this account. |
| password | The initial password for this account. |
| name | The user's name. |
| The user's email address. | |
| address | The user's physical address. |
| city | The user's city of residence. |
| state | The user's state (for United States citizens). |
| zip | The user's postal code (for United States citizens). |
| phone | The user's phone number. |
| URL | The user's website. |
| date | The date of registration. |
| misc | Any miscellaneous data. |
| text | Any extra text (potentially for a personal bio). |
| remove | Specifies a request to unregister. |
After the user has set all of the values in UserInfo, and added any extra fields they may wish to include in their registration, the application should make a call to Register.
If the bean is not already connected when this method is called, it will connect, poll the registration fields, and then disconnect.
This collection is a hashtable type of collection where the field string is used as the key to the desired XMPP user info object.
Example (Setting New User Information)
xmpp1.queryRegister("server");
xmpp1.getUserInfo().item("Username").setValue("newuser");
xmpp1.getUserInfo().item("Password").setValue("newpass");
xmpp1.register("server");
