Error: Expected resource of type styleable [ResourceType] error

Question

Take a look at this code snippet. I am getting an error with the last line, because I am passing an 'index' instead of a resource. I thought it was a lint issue and tried to suppress it. Then I noticed I am getting this error only when I building for release. It works fine when building for debug. I am totally clueless. Can anyone throw some light into what I am doing wrong.

//Get paddingLeft, paddingRight
        int[] attrsArray = new int[]{
                android.R.attr.paddingLeft,  // 0
                android.R.attr.paddingRight, // 1
        };
        TypedArray ta = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, attrsArray);
        if (ta == null) return;
        mPaddingLeft = ta.getDimensionPixelSize(0, 0);
        mPaddingRight = ta.getDimensionPixelSize(1/*error here*/, 0);

I had the same issue when trying to build a signed apk. Solved it by adding @SuppressWarnings("ResourceType") to suppress the warning, now it works fine.
