Converts the value of a specified object to an equivalent string representation using specified format and culture-specific formatting information.

- format
- String
A format string containing formatting specifications.
- arg
- Object
An object to format.
- formatProvider
- IFormatProvider
An object that supplies format information about the current instance.
Returns
The string representation of the value of arg, formatted as specified by format and formatProvider.
Examples
The following example implements ICustomFormatter to allow binary, octal, and hexadecimal formatting of integral values. Its ICustomFormatter.Format implementation determines whether the format parameter is one of the three supported format strings ("B" for binary, "O" for octal, and "H" for hexadecimal) and formats the arg parameter appropriately. Otherwise, if arg is not null, it calls the arg parameter's IFormattable.ToString implementation, if one exists, or its parameterless ToString method, if one does not. If arg is null, the method returns String.Empty.

MyFormatter can then be used to provide custom formatting by passing a MyFormatter object as the provider parameter of the Format method, as the following example shows.

Remarks
ICustomFormatter.Format is a callback method. It is called by a method that supports custom formatting, such as String.Format(IFormatProvider, String, Object[]) or StringBuilder.AppendFormat(IFormatProvider, String, Object[]). The implementation is called once for each format item in a composite format string. For example, in the following statement, the ICustomFormatter.Format method is called three times.
Console.WriteLine(String.Format(new MyFormatter(),
"{0} (binary: {0:B}) (hex: {0:H})", byteValue));
String.Format(MyFormatter(), "{0} (binary: {0:B}) (hex: {0:H})", byteValue)
|> printfn "%s"
Console.WriteLine(String.Format(New MyFormatter(), _
"{0} (binary: {0:B}) (hex: {0:H})", byteValue))
The arg parameter is the object in the object list whose zero-based position corresponds to the index of a particular format item.
The format parameter contains a format string, which is the formatString component of a format item. If the format item has no formatString component, the value of format is null. If format is null, depending on the type of arg, you may be able to use the default format specification of your choice.
The formatProvider parameter is the IFormatProvider implementation that provides formatting for arg. Typically, it is an instance of your ICustomFormatter implementation. If formatProvider is null, ignore that parameter.
Your implementation of the Format method must include the following functionality so the .NET Framework can provide formatting you do not support. If your format method does not support a format, determine whether the object being formatted implements the IFormattable interface. If it does, invoke the IFormattable.ToString method of that interface. Otherwise, invoke the default Object.ToString method of the underlying object. The following code illustrates this pattern.
if (arg is IFormattable)
return ((IFormattable)arg).ToString(format, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
else if (arg != null)
return arg.ToString();
match arg with
| :? IFormattable as arg ->
arg.ToString(format, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)
| null ->
String.Empty
| _ ->
string arg
If TypeOf arg Is IFormattable Then
Return DirectCast(arg, IFormattable).ToString(fmt, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture)
ElseIf arg IsNot Nothing Then
Return arg.ToString()
