Android Compare Background Color with Color

Question

i am trying to make a little game.

There the Background color Randomly change from Blue to Green and back to Blue. If the user click the Blue "Button" then he lose.

My problem is how do i get the Background Color? and Compare it with R.color.colorGreen

I have tried some Examples from here but nothing works.

if(Integer.parseInt(button.getBackground().toString()) == R.color.colorBlue)

In your random method that changes the background color, store the value, you can also make the comparison from there. — Dominique Lorre, Jun 28 '19 at 16:20

You should see this SO post.

If you're on Android 3.0+ you can get the color value
ColorDrawable buttonColor = (ColorDrawable) button.getBackground();
int color = buttonColor.getColor(); 

So, your revised if statement would be

ColorDrawable buttonColor = (ColorDrawable) button.getBackground();
int color = buttonColor.getColor();
if (color == getResources().getColor(R.color.colorBlue)) {
    // if statement body
}
