JCombobox containing enum values ​​inside a table

I have a class that contains an Enum with values. (names) In another class, I would like to inject inside the table a JCombobox cell type that will use these enum values. my problem is to concatenate between string values ​​and enum. for example enum class:

enum item_Type {entree, main_Meal, Dessert, Drink}

for example table class: setTitle ("Add new item"); setSize (300, 80); setBackground (Color.gray);

    // Create a panel to hold all other components
    topPanel = new JPanel();
    topPanel.setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
    getContentPane().add( topPanel );

    //new JComboBox(item_Type.values());
    JComboBox aaa = new JComboBox();
    aaa = new JComboBox(item_Type.values());
    TableColumn sportColumn = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(2);

    // Create columns names
    String columnNames[] = {"Item Description", "Item Type", "Item Price"};

    // Create some data
    String dataValues[][] = {{ "0", aaa, "0" }};
    // Create a new table instance
    table = new JTable( dataValues, columnNames );

    // Add the table to a scrolling pane
    scrollPane = new JScrollPane( table );
    topPanel.add( scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER );

      

        
        
        
      

    

I know that in the dataValues ​​array I cannot use aaa (enum jcombobox). How can i do this?

early.
