setBackground vs setBackgroundDrawable (Android)

by

It’s deprecated but it still works so you could just use it. But if you want to be completly correct, just for the completeness of it… You’d do something like following:

int sdk = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
if(sdk < android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) {
    setBackgroundDrawable();
} else {
    setBackground();
}

For this to work you need to set buildTarget api 16 and min build to 7 or something similar.
