[FIXED] Spring xml configuration - list with java.awt.Color values

Issue

I'm trying to inject a list of Color from java.awt.Color into my bean. In my XML I have:

<bean id="twoPlayers" class="basic.TwoPlayer">
            <property name="Colors">
                <list value-type="java.awt.Color">
                    <value>BLUE</value>
                    <value>GREEN</value>
                </list>
            </property>
        </bean>

The thing is it sees BLUE and GREEN as String so when I run the app I get an error saying type mismatch, can't cast String to Color. But I pointed out the type, so what's the problem? How to do this correctly?

The class:

public class TwoPlayer {

  public Color[] Colors;

  public void setColors(Color[] colors) {
    Colors = colors;
  }
  ...
}

I know I have ar array here, not a list but I've read it's not a problem for Spring.

Solution

Inspired by Vinayak Mittal answer (sorry, I can't upvote your answer, I don't have enough reputation), I decided to go with something like this:

<bean id="blue" class="java.awt.Color">
        <constructor-arg index="0" type="int"><value>0</value></constructor-arg>
        <constructor-arg index="1" type="int"><value>6</value></constructor-arg>
        <constructor-arg index="2" type="int"><value>234</value></constructor-arg>
    </bean>

    <bean id="green" class="java.awt.Color">
        <constructor-arg index="0" type="int"><value>29</value></constructor-arg>
        <constructor-arg index="1" type="int"><value>172</value></constructor-arg>
        <constructor-arg index="2" type="int"><value>32</value></constructor-arg>
    </bean>

<bean id="twoPlayers" class="basic.TwoPlayer">
    <property name="Colors">
        <list value-type="java.awt.Color">
            <ref bean="blue"/>
            <ref bean="green"/>
        </list>
    </property>
</bean>

It's not exactly what I wanted because I have to define the colors myself but it is good enough solution.
