The current implementation for the attribute support (and other stuff) is
completely based on reflection. Therefore the JavaBeanConverter has
currently no support for attributes, since the property name of a bean does
not have to correspond in any way with the internal field name of a member
of the bean. Sorry.
Unfortunately this is nothing we can change in short time, since it requires
a most-probably incompatible redesign of the registration and lookup part.

What do you try to achieve with the calling of the setters?
