Method	Description
CanConvertFrom ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType ) : bool	Gets a value indicating whether this converter can convert an object in the given source type to a object using the specified context.
CanConvertTo ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type destinationType ) : bool	Gets a value indicating whether this converter can convert an object to the given destination type using the context.
ConvertFrom ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value ) : object	Converts the given object to a object.
ConvertTo ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType ) : object	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.
