Programmatically set button text color

Question

I have a button created in my class Main via code, that is, programmatically. See:

Button btnJonSnow = new Button(this);
btnJonSnow.setText("Jon Snow");

How can I program the color of the button text?

Answer 1

To set a color for the button text you need to use the attribute setTextColor(). Then to redeem the color you can use the static method getColor() of the public class Contextcompat. Take an example:

Button btnJonSnow = new Button(this);
btnJonSnow.setText("Jon Snow");
btnJonSnow.setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(mContext, R.color.colorAccent));
