TypeConverterAttribute

Synopsis

You can adorn a class or property with this attribute to bind it to a particular TypeConverter class. The framework then uses this converter to attempt to translate a user-defined type that it doesn’t understand into one that it does.

You can get the type name of the converter with the ConverterTypeName property.

public sealed class TypeConverterAttribute : Attribute {

// Public Constructors

   public TypeConverterAttribute();

   public TypeConverterAttribute(string typeName);

// Public Static Fields

                  // Public Instance Properties

   public string ConverterTypeName{get; }

// Public Instance Methods

   public override bool Equals(object obj);  // overrides Attribute
