Answer 1

In JavaFX, you use TableColumns with CellFactories and CellValueFactories to populate your TableView.

The JavaFX tutorials have an article that might get you started.

In one approach I have used I convert the business objects to display into presentation objects and add all necessary properties (like in your case, the number) to them.

EDIT: In a second, cleaner approach, you could set your CellFactory to create a TableCell that shows its own index property in TableCell#updateItem(S, boolean):

public class NumberedCell extends TableCell{

  protected void updateItem(Object object, boolean selected){
    setText(String.valueOf(getIndex());
  }
}
