ConvertTo() public method

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.

public ConvertTo ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType ) : object
context	ITypeDescriptorContext
culture	System.Globalization.CultureInfo
value	object
destinationType	Type
return	object

        public override object ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType)
        {
            if (destinationType == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(destinationType));
            }
            if (destinationType == typeof(InstanceDescriptor) && value is Guid)
            {
                ConstructorInfo ctor = typeof(Guid).GetConstructor(new Type[] { typeof(string) });
                if (ctor != null)
                {
                    return new InstanceDescriptor(ctor, new object[] { value.ToString() });
                }
            }
            return base.ConvertTo(context, culture, value, destinationType);
        }
    }
