Richfaces inputNumberSlider does not call setter

Question

The following inputNumberSlider does not call my setter:

<rich:inputNumberSlider 
         value="#{skinningBean.currentSkin.button.backgroundColor_focussedAlpha}"
         maxValue="1" step="0.1">
         <a4j:ajax event="change" render="preview" oncomplete="initSlider()" />
</rich:inputNumberSlider>


public float getBackgroundColor_focussedAlpha() {
    return backgroundColor_focussedAlpha;
}

public void setBackgroundColor_focussedAlpha(float backgroundColor_focussedAlpha) {
    this.backgroundColor_focussedAlpha = backgroundColor_focussedAlpha;
}

I also tried to make a setter which takes a String as parameter, but it's not called as well. Ans yes it is inside a form! What am I doing wrong?

Edit: Seems I'm not the only one with this problem: http://osdir.com/ml/java-jsf-richfaces-issues/2010-10/msg00073.html

What version of RF are you running? Have you attempted an upgrade? — kolossus, Apr 03 '13 at 03:06

It is probably caused by your bean's scope.

I've found that if it's anything from the javax.faces.bean package the components aren't working, but it will work with the javax.enterprise.context package. The scopes are named the same except for javax.faces.bean.@ViewScoped which you can change to javax.enterprise.context.@ConversationScoped

This package is not available for me – 4ndro1d Apr 04 '13 at 08:32
@4ndro1d sorry, I made a typo, it's `javax.enterprise.context` – Makhiel Apr 04 '13 at 08:46
I'm just getting NullPointer Exceptions when I change my @SessionScoped to it – 4ndro1d Apr 04 '13 at 09:34
What version of Java are you using? The package comes with Java EE 6. – Makhiel Apr 04 '13 at 09:54
That's what I'm using. It seems there are problems with the Scope then – 4ndro1d Apr 04 '13 at 10:41
