ConfigurationConverterBase.CanConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type) Method

Definition

Determines whether the conversion is allowed.

public:
 override bool CanConvertTo(System::ComponentModel::ITypeDescriptorContext ^ ctx, Type ^ type);
public override bool CanConvertTo (System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext ctx, Type type);
override this.CanConvertTo : System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext * Type -> bool
Public Overrides Function CanConvertTo (ctx As ITypeDescriptorContext, type As Type) As Boolean

Parameters

ctx
ITypeDescriptorContext

The ITypeDescriptorContext object used for type conversion.

type
Type

The type to convert to.

Returns

true if the conversion is allowed; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following example code shows how to override the CanConvertTo method to create a custom TimeSpan converter type. Also, the example shows how to use this type in a custom section.

public override bool CanConvertTo(
    ITypeDescriptorContext ctx, Type type)
{
    return (type == typeof(string));
}
Public Overrides Function CanConvertTo( _
ByVal ctx As ITypeDescriptorContext, _
ByVal type As Type) As Boolean
    Return (type.ToString() = GetType(String).ToString())

End Function 'CanConvertTo

Remarks

The CanConvertTo method determines whether the strings contained in the configuration file can be converted to the related strongly typed properties.
