I define a custom meta type for columns, but VsCode is not inferring type

[cheesyMan]

Hi everyone,
I'm pretty new to React-Table (v8) and TS, and I'm having some troubles with column meta-type.

As explained in official docs, I create a table:
const table = createTable().setRowType<MyCustomDataType>();

then, I define a custom meta-type for my columns to set CSS classes for both headers and cells, and I set this meta-type for the table with setColumnMetaType() method:

type MetaType = {
    headerClass?: string;
    cellClass?: string;
};

table.setColumnMetaType<MetaType>();

BUT, when I start to define my columns, VSCode makes no type inference on the meta property:

Any hints? Thanks :)

As stated in the doc here here

⚠️ Due to generic limitations, This meta object must be typecast to the correct type before usage.

What you need to do is casting your meta prop like

(columnDef.meta as MetaType).headerClass...
