app.user not set when manually authentications a user

I'm following an example of how to manually authenticate a user after registration, it looks like this:

$token = new UsernamePasswordToken($user->getUsername(), null, 'main', array('ROLE_USER'));
$this->get('security.context')->setToken($token);

Bu because I'm using doctrine entity as a user provider, it's not being set correctly and I dont know how to do this right. If I pass $user as a first argument webpage loops indefinitely. I feel like there should be a DoctrineUserToken class somwhere but can;t find it.

Can you direct me please?

EDIT:

if I change the line to this: 

$token = new UsernamePasswordToken($user, null, 'main', $user->getRoles());

where I pass $user as first argument, and get roles from user object, then a redirection results in a infinite loop.

I'm lost.

Try this code:

$token = new UsernamePasswordToken($user->getUsername(), null, 'secured_area', array('ROLE_USER'));
$this->get('security.context')->setToken($token);

$providerKey must be get form secure.yml:

firewalls:
    secured_area:
        form_login:
            check_path: /signInCheck
            login_path: /signIn
        logout: true
