RectangleConverter.ConvertTo

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

[Visual Basic]

   ByVal context As ITypeDescriptorContext, _
   ByVal value As Object, _
   ByVal destinationType As Type, _
   ByVal arguments() As Object _
) As Object
[C#]
public override object ConvertTo(

public override function ConvertTo(
   context : ITypeDescriptorContext,

) : Object;

Parameters

destinationType
The type to convert the object to.
arguments
An optional array of arguments to use when doing the conversion. The number and content of these arguments is dependent on the implementer of the value formatter.
