How to get accent color programmatically?

Question

How would one fetch the accent color set in styles, like below, programmatically?

    <item name="android:colorAccent">@color/material_green_500</item> 

Answer 1

You can fetch it from the current theme in this way:

private int fetchAccentColor() {     TypedValue typedValue = new TypedValue();      TypedArray a = mContext.obtainStyledAttributes(typedValue.data, new int[] { R.attr.colorAccent });     int color = a.getColor(0, 0);      a.recycle();      return color; }
