Public Overrides Function CanConvertFrom (context As ITypeDescriptorContext, sourceType As Type) As Boolean

Parameters

context
ITypeDescriptorContext

An ITypeDescriptorContext that can be used to gain additional context information.

sourceType

A Type that represents the type you want to convert from.

Returns

true if the converter can perform the conversion; otherwise, false.
