You would use the DoubleSolenoid class instead of the Solenoid class:

// Create a new DoubleSolenoid with the forward channel in port 1,
// and the reverse channel in port 2
DoubleSolenoid doubleSolenoid = new DoubleSolenoid(1, 2);

In addition, the call to DoubleSolenoid#set() is a bit different than Solenoid#set(). Instead of taking a boolean value, it takes a DoubleSolenoid.Value object:

// Set the solenoid to the 'forward' position
doubleSolenoid.set(DoubleSolenoid.Value.kForward);
// Set the solenoid to the 'reverse' position
doubleSolenoid.set(DoubleSolenoid.Value.kReverse);
// Set the solenoid to the 'off' position
doubleSolenoid.set(DoubleSolenoid.Value.kOff);

You can find more details in the FRC javadocs, located at "C:\Users\user\sunspotfrcsdk\doc\javadoc\index.html" on any computer that has the FRC Java plugins installed.
