Resources$NotFoundException while trying to change color

Issue

I am trying to change color of my snackbar

snackbarView.setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, Color.RED));

I am getting something like this :

android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Resource ID #0xffff0000

Where definitely

0xffff0000

represents RED.But why it cant find this resource? Any help?

Solution

Try this :-

In your values.xml , create colors.xml and add following line :

<color name="red">#FF0000</color>

Then call this color like this :-

snackbarView.setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context,R.color.red));
