Examples
The following code examples show how to derive from the ConfigurationConverterBase class to create a custom TimeSpan converter type. Also, the examples show how to use this type in a custom section.

Remarks
The ConfigurationConverterBase is the base class for the converter configuration types. These are types that convert strings, found in the configuration file, to and from the related strongly typed properties.
Constructors
ConfigurationConverterBase() |
Initializes a new instance of the ConfigurationConverterBase class. |
Methods
CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type) |

Returns whether this converter can convert an object of the given type to the type of this converter. (Inherited from TypeConverter) |
CanConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type) |
Determines whether the conversion is allowed. |
CanConvertTo(Type) |
Returns whether this converter can convert the object to the specified type. (Inherited from TypeConverter) |
