getColor(int id) deprecated on Android 6.0 Marshmallow (API 23)

by

Starting from Android Support Library 23,

a new getColor() method has been added to ContextCompat.

Its description from the official JavaDoc:

Returns a color associated with a particular resource ID

Starting in M, the returned color will be styled for the specified Context’s theme.

So, just call:

ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.your_color);

You can check the ContextCompat.getColor() source code on GitHub.
