Android get color as string value

Question

If i defined a color in resources

    #123456

it\'s possible

Answer 1

If you don't want to use ContextCompat or SuppressLint, simply add a string resource right under your color.

Instead of

#FFFFFF

Use

#FFFFFF
#FFFFFF

Your code does get more repetitive but it's much cleaner. Besides, forgeting to updating the string after changing color is almost impossible since they are right next to each other.
