Create an instance of AnyBar4j, passing in the hostname (string) and port (int) of the AnyBar instance.
Call setImage() on the AnyBar4j instance, using one of the AnyBarImage enum values or a custom name, to change the displayed image/color.
Call close() to close the client socket.

EXCLAMATION

Example

Change AnyBar to purple:

AnyBar4j anybar = null;

try {
	anybar = new AnyBar4j(AnyBar4j.DEFAULT_HOST, AnyBar4j.DEFAULT_PORT);

	anybar.setImage(AnyBarImage.PURPLE);
} catch (Exception e) {
	e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
	if (anybar != null) {
		anybar.close();
	}
}

In the above instance, you may substitute the AnyBar4j constructor with an empty constructor to connect to the default host and port:

anybar = new AnyBar4j(AnyBar4j.DEFAULT_HOST, AnyBar4j.DEFAULT_PORT);
// Same as
anybar = new AnyBar4j();
