Android: Alternative for context.getDrawable()

The previously accepted method has been deprecated, according to the SDK 22 documentation:

Prior to android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#JELLY_BEAN, this function would not correctly retrieve the final configuration density when the resource ID passed here is an alias to another Drawable resource. This means that if the density configuration of the alias resource is different than the actual resource, the density of the returned Drawable would be incorrect, resulting in bad scaling.

As pointed out in this answer better solution would be to use ContextCompat: ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, R.drawable.***)

Add a getResources() after the context:

Drawable greenProgressbar = context.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.custom_progressbargreen);
