With the above two resource files, we can loop through each color by the the code below.
[code language=”java”]
String[] colorNames = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.colorNames);
for(int i=0; i<colorNames.length; i++)
{
//Getting the color resource id
TypedArray ta = getResources().obtainTypedArray(R.array.colors);
int colorToUse = ta.getResourceId(i, 0);

//setting the color on a dummy TextView as a demo
TextView textV = new TextView(getActivity());
textV.setText(colorNames[i]);
textV.setBackgroundResource(colorToUse);

//log the color name and color resource id
Log.d("color","color name: " + colorNames[i]);
Log.d("color","color resource id: "+ colorToUse);
}
[/code]
