Hello,

I have been using Apache POI, and I faced a situation where I could use 
reflection to determine which datatype a cell should have based on the datatype 
of the value that is going to contain in Excel.
When I tried to use, for instance, anObject.getClass().cast(), the POI library 
would show an error at compile time, while this code is certainly valid at 
runtime.
I attached the two classes containing the necessary contributions 
(src/java/org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Cell.java and 
src/ooxml/java/org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFCell.java).
I can commit them on SVN if this is suitable.

For more of this, please take a look at this:
