This version is a completely rewrite of the previous library, most classes has been renamed and the required Java version has been downgraded to Java 8, see the git logs for all the changes:

CheckHostAPI.java -> CheckHost4J.java

CHResult.java -> ResultNode.java
CHServer.java -> ServerNode.java

CheckHostAPI#createPingRequest -> CheckHost4J#ping
CheckHostAPI#createTCPRequest -> CheckHost4J#tcpPort
CheckHostAPI#createUDPRequest -> CheckHost4J#udpPort
