Public Overrides Function ConvertTo (context As ITypeDescriptorContext, culture As CultureInfo, value As Object, destinationType As Type) As Object

Parameters

context: ITypeDescriptorContext

A format context that provides information about the environment from which this converter is being invoked.

culture: CultureInfo

Culture specific information.

The object to convert.

Object

Throws an exception in all cases.

Exceptions

NotSupportedException

Cannot perform the conversion.

ArgumentException

Remarks

The ComponentResourceKey type should not use a type converter pathway to convert values. You should use markup extensions instead. For this reason, the CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type) and CanConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type) methods always return false. The ConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext, CultureInfo, Object) and ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext, CultureInfo, Object, Type) methods always throw an exception.
