Connecting FTDI device to Android as VCP

I'm trying to connect an FTDI FT2232H to an Android application using the Java class library that FTDI provides, which does not require root access.



Is there a way to use VCP through this package, rather than the old-style native driver route? Or, if not, is there a way to emulate a VCP interface through it (or is it possible at all to roll my own solution?) I'm finding the official docs a bit lacking, as they encourage using the Java lib over the native one, but don't explain whether or not it provides full feature parity.
