TableFilter throws ClassCastException for different Object types in comparison

[boraciner]

if you have a common object type for a column and store Boolean , Float , Integer etc.. types
TableColumn<TabEntry, Object> valueCol = new TableColumn<>("Value");

It throws exception.

Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" java.lang.ClassCastException: class java.lang.Boolean cannot be cast to class java.lang.Float (java.lang.Boolean and java.lang.Float are in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap')
