At least in this instance, your method is returning a CSpValue that is
_not_ a CSpString.
If you want to guarantee that you get a CSpString result, you would have to
do:
CSpString min = new CSpString(fdMinInputSizeBank.get( fieldName )
.stringValue());
If you have reason to believe that the method would actually return a
CSpString a good deal of the time, and don't want to incur the overhead of
instantiating a new one all the time, you could test:
CSpValue min1 = ( fdMinInputSizeBank.get( fieldName ));
CSpString min = min1 instanceof CSpString ? min1 : new
CSpString(min1.stringValue());
