How to set a textview's background color to be holo green light via XML?

Question

I've got a textview and I'd let to set its background color to be holo green light as mentioned here.

However, I can't figure out how to do this via XML. Is it possible? I currently have:

    <TextView         android:text="2"         android:textSize="200sp"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="fill_parent"         android:id="@+id/textView2"         android:background="#00FF00"         android:gravity="center"         android:textColor="#EEEEEE"         android:layout_alignParentRight="true" /> 

However, I'm unable to change android:background to somehow reference holo green light.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried "@android:color/" but no dice.

Via Java:

TextView test = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.textView2); test.setBackgroundResource(context.getResources().getColor(android.R.color.holo_green_light)); 

Via XML:

 <TextView         android:text="2"         android:textSize="200sp"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="fill_parent"         android:id="@+id/textView2"         android:style="@style/textviewStyle"          android:background="@android:color/holo_green_light"         android:gravity="center"         android:textColor="#EEEEEE"         android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />

android:background="@android:color/holo_green_light" seems to work for me. Your target API version does include the Holo theme, right?
