- context
- ITypeDescriptorContext
An ITypeDescriptorContext object that represents the data-bound component or the control that the property belongs to.
- sourceType
- Type
The type to convert from.
Returns
true if sourceType is a string; otherwise false.
Remarks
Note
You typically do not access a type converter directly. This implementation of TypeConverter is intended for use by a data-bound control at design time, and is instantiated with a TypeConverterAttribute on a property.
