Difference between Color.red and Color.RED

Question

What\'s the real difference between definitions for setXxx(Color.red) and setXxx(Color.RED)?

I\'ve found the following explanation on the w

Answer 1

Java defined some color constant names in lowercase, which violated the naming rule of using uppercase for constants. Heres the code for the color red:

public final static Color red = new Color(255, 0, 0); 

Later on they made the same colors but in uppercase.

public final static Color RED = red;

So there is really no difference. They are all the same, as you can tell by the code.

public final static Color red = new Color(255, 0, 0);
public final static Color RED = red;

Hope this helps!
