Difference between getResources (). GetColor (R.color.Black) and directly R.color.Black

Question

Difference between getResources (). GetColor (R.color.Black) and directly R.color.Black

have I noticed strange eclipse behavior?

I have a static variable:

public static colorID = R.color.Black;

Sometimes it is the same as R.color.Black:

if(colorID == R.color.Black)
     //sometimes it works

sometimes i need to use

if(colorID == getResources().getColor(R.color.Black));

It's really annoying to find a bug by testing if your code is big ...

So, I want to know why this sometimes works, why not, and why the returned integer is sometimes different and sometimes not. They both link to R.color.Black in my custom file color.xml

in my folder values

. Why are they sometimes different?

getColor returns the actual color value AARRGGBB. R.color.Black is an identifier that contains a color that may or may not be black. One is the actual value, one is the color reference.
