C# Class Revit.SDK.Samples.CreateBeamSystem.CS.ParameterConverter

base class of converting types of FamilySymbol to string Code here have nothing with Revit API it's only for PropertyGrid and its SelectedObject

Inheritance: System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter

Protected Properties

Property	Type	Description
m_hash	FamilySymbol>.Dictionary

Method	Description
CanConvertFrom ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType ) : bool	whether this converter can convert an object of the given type to string
ConvertFrom ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value ) : object	converts the Name to corresponding FamilySymbol
ConvertTo ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object v, Type destinationType ) : object	converts the given FamilySymbol to the Name, using the specified context and culture information
GetConvertHash ( ) : void	subclass must implement to initialize m_hash
GetStandardValues ( ITypeDescriptorContext context ) : StandardValuesCollection	returns a collection of FamilySymbol
GetStandardValuesExclusive ( ITypeDescriptorContext context ) : bool	whether the collection of standard values returned from GetStandardValues is an exclusive list of possible values
GetStandardValuesSupported ( ITypeDescriptorContext context ) : bool	returns whether this object supports a standard set of values that can be picked from a list

Method	Description
ParameterConverter ( ) : System	constructor initialize m_hash

whether this converter can convert an object of the given type to string

public CanConvertFrom ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType ) : bool
context	ITypeDescriptorContext	provides a format context
sourceType	System.Type	a Type that represents the type you want to convert from
return	bool

converts the Name to corresponding FamilySymbol

public ConvertFrom ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value ) : object
context	ITypeDescriptorContext	provides a format context
culture	System.Globalization.CultureInfo	the CultureInfo to use as the current culture
value	object	the Object to convert
return	object

converts the given FamilySymbol to the Name, using the specified context and culture information

public ConvertTo ( ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object v, Type destinationType ) : object
context	ITypeDescriptorContext	provides a format context
culture	System.Globalization.CultureInfo	the CultureInfo to use as the current culture
v	object	the Object to convert
destinationType	System.Type	should be string
return	object

subclass must implement to initialize m_hash
