This TypeConverter is used in serialization and design-time scenarios to translate to and from reference types. You should not normally call it directly from your own code.

public class ReferenceConverter : TypeConverter {

// Public Constructors

   public ReferenceConverter(Type type);

        System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture, object value);  // overrides TypeConverter

   public override object ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, 

        System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType);  // overrides TypeConverter

   public override StandardValuesCollection GetStandardValues(ITypeDescriptorContext context);  // overrides TypeConverter

   public override bool GetStandardValuesExclusive(ITypeDescriptorContext context);  // overrides TypeConverter

   public override bool GetStandardValuesSupported(ITypeDescriptorContext context);  // overrides TypeConverter
