@abhinay @jschneider @edvin I'm not sure how general the function form of column is. the code from abhinay compiles and runs but doesn't display anything. it looks like a problem with the cellvaluefactory
in that form of column{} we can't add a type safe builder initializer to set the cellvaluefactory like this
val mc = column("Millis", Instant::toEpochMilli)
mc.cellValueFactory = PropertyValueFactory<Person, Long>("Millis")
