Sortable Columns In scala.swing.Table - scala

Question

Consider this example code:
import swing._
import Swing._
import javax.swing.JTable
import javax.swing.table.AbstractTableModel
class MyTable(columnNames: Seq[String], model: Seq[Seq[Any]]) extends Component {
override lazy val peer = new JTable(new AbstractTableModel {
def getValueAt(row: Int, col: Int): AnyRef = model(row)(col).asInstanceOf[AnyRef]
def getColumnCount() = columnNames.length
def getRowCount() = model.length
override def isCellEditable(row: Int, column: Int) = false
})
peer setAutoCreateRowSorter true
}
object SO extends SimpleSwingApplication {
implicit def tabelRowData2Array[T](rowData: Seq[Seq[T]]) = rowData.map(_.toArray[Any]).toArray
val rowData = Seq(Seq("1"), Seq("2"), Seq("3"))
val columnNames = Seq("Nr")
def top = new MainFrame {
title = "TableTest"
val scalaTable = new Table(rowData,columnNames) {
peer setAutoCreateRowSorter true
}
val myTable = new MyTable(columnNames,rowData)
contents = new BoxPanel(Orientation.Horizontal) {
contents += new ScrollPane(scalaTable)
contents += new ScrollPane(myTable)
}
}
}
Why are the columns in scalaTable not sortable when clicking on the column name while the columns in myTable are?
And how can I use scala.swing.Table with sortable columns instead of reimplementing it by MyTable?

See my answer to my own question at Using TableRowSorter with scala.swing.Table. The Java 6 table sorting feature isn't implemented in scala.swing.Table. The code is commented out.
