android - colors.xml not generating the correct values in gen/R file?

Question

I'm trying to access each of the values in colors.xml, but the int (hex) values in the R/color class doesn't match corresponding values that are defined in colors.xml. Here are some sample values:

 R/color (all of which starts with 0x7f0400...):
    public static final int AliceBlue=0x7f04002d;
    public static final int AntiqueWhite=0x7f040023;
    public static final int Aqua=0x7f04007d;
    public static final int Aquamarine=0x7f040062;
    public static final int Azure=0x7f04002b;
...

 But in colors.xml (all of which starts with #00...):
    <color name="AliceBlue">#F0F8FF</color>
    <color name="AntiqueWhite">#FAEBD7</color>
    <color name="Aqua">#00FFFF</color>
    <color name="Aquamarine">#7FFFD4</color>
    <color name="Azure">#F0FFFF</color>

Answer 1

The values in the R file are not the values that you define they are the id that will be assigned to each color so you access them. You can use R.color.AliceBlue and it will give you the value you assigned to it in colors.xml. Do Not modify the R.java file. It is generated automatically.
