Remarks
The DataProviderNameConverter class is a TypeConverter object that is typically referenced by the TypeConverterAttribute attribute.
The names that are returned by the GetStandardValues method are of ADO.NET providers, from the GetFactoryClasses method, that create data objects.
The GetStandardValuesExclusive method gets a value indicating whether the returned provider names are an exclusive list of possible values. The GetStandardValuesSupported method gets a value indicating whether the returned provider names are a standard set of values that can be picked from a list.
