Why do my getters are not called?

[rainy14f]

Hi,

I am writting a page, which contains a tree. When the user clicks on the tree, some content are displayed in another area in the same page.

 <h:panelGroup styleClass="tree">
 <rich:tree value="#{hReportItems.tree}" var="data" switchType="client"
 adviseNodeOpened="#{hTaskNav.isNodeOpened}">
 <rich:treeNode>
 <a4j:commandLink immediate="true" action="#{hReportItems.doShowReport}" reRender="ContentsA">
 <f:setPropertyActionListener target="#{hReportItems.selectedReportItemId}" value="#{data.id}"/>
 <f:setPropertyActionListener target="#{hReportItems.rid}" value="#{data.id}"/>
 <h:outputText value="#{data.name} [#{data.id}]"/>
 </a4j:commandLink>
 </rich:treeNode>
 </rich:tree>
 </h:panelGroup>

Another area in the same page I wrote:

<a4j:outputPanel id="ContentsA" ajaxRendered="true">
<span style="color:red">rid: <h:outputText value="#{hReportItem.rid}"/></span><br/>
</a4j:outputPanel>

But the latter is not rendered when the tree is clicked, so it leaves a blank in that area.

I debugged and put a PhaseListener in the life cycle, and I can clearly see the getters are not called, thougt the setter are called and the right values are set to the bean.

Could anyone help on this?

Thanks a lot.

I put a logger in both the setters and the getters of that particular property, and this is what I've got. I expect the getters to be called in the last phase, but it was not.

Solved! That's because the name of the bean was wrongl spelled. Interestingly, I don't get any exception or warning when this happens.
