Parameters

context

A formatter context. This object can be used to extract additional information about the environment this converter is being invoked from. This may be null, so you should always check. Also, properties on the context object may also return null.

culture

An optional culture info. If not supplied the current culture is assumed.

value

The object to convert.

destinationType

The type to convert the object to.

Returns

The converted object.

Remarks

The most common types to convert are to and from a string object. The default implementation will make a call to object.ToString on the object if the object is valid and if the destination type is string. If this cannot convert to the destination type, this will throw a NotSupportedException.
