很抱歉，这不是答案，但是是什么驱使需求从代码中设置它呢? 如果定义正确。setprogressdrawable应该工作

<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<item android:id="@android:id/background">
    <shape>
        <corners android:radius="5dip" />
        <gradient
                android:startColor="#ff9d9e9d"
                android:centerColor="#ff5a5d5a"
                android:centerY="0.75"
                android:endColor="#ff747674"
                android:angle="270"
        />
    </shape>
</item>

<item android:id="@android:id/secondaryProgress">
    <clip>
        <shape>
            <corners android:radius="5dip" />
            <gradient
                    android:startColor="#80ffd300"
                    android:centerColor="#80ffb600"
                    android:centerY="0.75"
                    android:endColor="#a0ffcb00"
                    android:angle="270"
            />
        </shape>
    </clip>
</item>

<item android:id="@android:id/progress">
    <clip>
        <shape>
            <corners
                android:radius="5dip" />
            <gradient
                android:startColor="@color/progress_start"
                android:endColor="@color/progress_end"
                android:angle="270" 
            />
        </shape>
    </clip>
</item>

</layer-list>

ProgressBar bar;

private Handler progressBarHandler = new Handler();

GradientDrawable progressGradientDrawable = new GradientDrawable(
        GradientDrawable.Orientation.LEFT_RIGHT, new int[]{
                0xff1e90ff,0xff006ab6,0xff367ba8});
ClipDrawable progressClipDrawable = new ClipDrawable(
        progressGradientDrawable, Gravity.LEFT, ClipDrawable.HORIZONTAL);
Drawable[] progressDrawables = {
        new ColorDrawable(0xffffffff),
        progressClipDrawable, progressClipDrawable};
LayerDrawable progressLayerDrawable = new LayerDrawable(progressDrawables);


int status = 0;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    setContentView(R.layout.startup);

    bar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.start_page_progressBar);
    bar.setProgress(0);
    bar.setMax(100);

    progressLayerDrawable.setId(0, android.R.id.background);
    progressLayerDrawable.setId(1, android.R.id.secondaryProgress);
    progressLayerDrawable.setId(2, android.R.id.progress);

    bar.setProgressDrawable(progressLayerDrawable);
}

这帮助我通过代码设置自定义颜色为progressbar。希望能有所帮助

根据一些建议，你可以指定一个形状和可剪切的颜色，然后设置它。我让它以编程的方式工作。我就是这么做的。

首先确保导入了可绘制库。

进口android.graphics.drawable。*;

然后使用类似于下面的代码;

ProgressBar pg = (ProgressBar)row.findViewById(R.id.progress);
final float[] roundedCorners = new float[] { 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 };
pgDrawable = new ShapeDrawable(new RoundRectShape(roundedCorners, null,null));
String MyColor = "#FF00FF";
pgDrawable.getPaint().setColor(Color.parseColor(MyColor));
ClipDrawable progress = new ClipDrawable(pgDrawable, Gravity.LEFT, ClipDrawable.HORIZONTAL);
pg.setProgressDrawable(progress);   
pg.setBackgroundDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.progress_horizontal));
pg.setProgress(45);

如果不确定的:

((ProgressBar)findViewById(R.id.progressBar))
    .getIndeterminateDrawable()
    .setColorFilter(Color.RED, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

我是如何在水平ProgressBar中做到的:

    LayerDrawable layerDrawable = (LayerDrawable) progressBar.getProgressDrawable();
    Drawable progressDrawable = layerDrawable.findDrawableByLayerId(android.R.id.progress);
    progressDrawable.setColorFilter(color, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

还有一件小事，如果你继承了一个基础主题，主题解决方案也会起作用，所以对于应用紧凑，你的主题应该是:

<style name="AppTheme.Custom" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat">
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/custom</item>
</style>

然后在进度条主题中设置这个

<ProgressBar
    android:id="@+id/progressCircle_progressBar"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme.Custom"
    android:indeterminate="true"/>
