editable table in javafx - javafx

Question

I'm trying to build a billing system in javafx, and I could build the table and everything. Now I want to change it, I want the table to be already editable, i.e the text fields in the table should be enabled to edit before onEditCommite. Also storing the data in the table is also giving a problem.
The code is given below. In the below code, the rows are being added and can be deleted. But I want to make it editable when the "new bill" button in clicked. Also any method to calculate the Price by multiplying the this.rate and this.qty.
public class abc extends Application {
private TableView<Billing> table = new TableView<Billing>();
private final ObservableList<Billing> data = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
final HBox hb = new HBox();
final HBox hb1=new HBox();
final HBox hb2= new HBox();
private IntegerProperty index = new SimpleIntegerProperty();
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args); }
// Stage Start method. Whole Stage.
#Override
public void start(Stage stage) {
Scene scene = new Scene(new Group());
stage.setTitle("Billing");
stage.setWidth(550);
stage.setHeight(650);
final Label label = new Label("Billing Trial 2 ");
label.setFont(new Font("Comic Sans", 26));
//Call EditingCell and set true to make it editable
table.setEditable(true);
Callback<TableColumn, TableCell> cellFactory =
new Callback<TableColumn, TableCell>() {
public TableCell call(TableColumn p) {
return new EditingCell();
}
};
TableColumn srnoCol = new TableColumn("Sr. No. ");
srnoCol.setMinWidth(50);
srnoCol.setCellValueFactory(
new PropertyValueFactory<Billing, String>("srNo"));

numCol.setMinWidth(50);
numCol.setCellValueFactory(
new PropertyValueFactory<Billing, String>("itemCode"));

new EventHandler<CellEditEvent<Billing, String>>() {

Old question but here is what I think should work : Dont use setGraphic(null) in your cellFactory. Always set it to TextField. Also for the calculation part you can add listeners to your properties in the data model and perform calculation on any change of values for those properties.
