Definition

Returns a type converter for a component or a type.

Overloads

GetConverter(Type)

Returns a type converter for the specified type.

GetConverter(Object, Boolean)

Returns a type converter for the type of the specified component with a custom type descriptor.

GetConverter(Object)

GetConverter(Type)

Source:
TypeDescriptor.cs
Source:
TypeDescriptor.cs

TypeDescriptor.cs

Returns a type converter for the specified type.

public:
 static System::ComponentModel::TypeConverter ^ GetConverter(Type ^ type);
public static System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter GetConverter (Type type);
static member GetConverter : Type -> System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter
Public Shared Function GetConverter (type As Type) As TypeConverter

Parameters

type
Type

The Type of the target component.

Returns

A TypeConverter for the specified type.

Exceptions

type is null.

Remarks

Call this version of this method only when you do not have an instance of the object.

This method looks for the appropriate type converter by looking for a TypeConverterAttribute. If it cannot find a TypeConverterAttribute, it traverses the base class hierarchy of the class until it finds a primitive type.
