How to setUserState?

$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$app->setUserState('com_users.reset.user', $user->id);
$userId = $app->getUserState('com_users.reset.user');

This

echo $userId;

will print nothing

echo $user->id;

will print the user id correctly.

How can I setUserState ?

I found that in libraries/joomla/application/application.php the function getUserState is failing when if (!is_null($registry)) and returns null

public function setUserState($key, $value)
    {
        $session = JFactory::getSession();
        $registry = $session->get('registry');

        if (!is_null($registry))
        {
            return $registry->set($key, $value);
        }

        return null;
    }

I found a solution. I am not sure what caused this. But if for a reason the "registry" session variable is not working then you can initialize it like this. And it works.

$session = JFactory::getSession();
$session->set('registry',   new JRegistry('session'));
