Vaadin set component color to hex or int or rgb

Question

I am currently messing about with Vaadin.

I see that that I can change background color of eg button like so:

cButton.getStyle().set("background","red");

But if I want to set a specific color like this one: #EAB251. How can it be done?

This color could change depending on what the user chooses in an RGB-/HEX-/INT-color picker.

You can use any valid CSS value for the property. So cButton.getStyle().set("background", "#EAB251") and cButton.getStyle().set("background", "rgb(234, 178, 81)") should work. In fact, the line of code you posted works because red is a CSS color name.
