I have a border that I made for a button that should be enabled when the button is clicked on. 

<Button
        android:id="@+id/imageView_red"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:paddingLeft="15dp"
        android:paddingRight="15dp"
        android:src="@drawable/border" />

My question is how can I enable/disable this drawable? Does java provide a solution for this?

I tried looking at this post, but it didn't seem to answer that question

All you need to do is you have to put the selector drawable in the button like this 

<Button
 android:id="@+id/button1"
 android:background="@drawable/selector_xml_name"
 android:layout_width="200dp"
 android:layout_height="126dp"
 android:text="Hello" />

And the drawable like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_pressed="true">
    <shape>
        <stroke android:width="10dp"/>
    </shape>
</item>
<item android:state_pressed="false">
    <shape>
        <stroke android:width="0dp"/>
    </shape>
</item>
