I would like to convert some value from **com.inductiveautomation.opcua.types.DataValue** type  
to Java class.  
When I try to cast the value, the following exception is triggered :

```auto
java.lang.ClassCastException: com.inductiveautomation.opcua.types.UInt64 cannot be cast to java.lang.Integer
```

Is there some utils functions in the sdk to achieve this ?
