Constructors

EqualityTypeConverter() 

public EqualityTypeConverter()

Methods

DoReferenceCast(object?, Type)

Handles casting for a reference. Understands about nullable types and can cast appropriately.

public static object? DoReferenceCast(object? from, Type targetType)

Parameters

from object

The object we are casting from.

targetType Type

The target we want to cast to.

Returns

object

The new value after it has been casted.

Exceptions

InvalidCastException

If we cannot cast the object.

GetAffinityForObjects(Type, Type)

Returns a positive integer when this class supports TryConvert for this particular Type. If the method isn't supported at all, return a non-positive integer. When multiple implementations return a positive value, the host will use the one which returns the highest value. When in doubt, return '2' or '0'.

public int GetAffinityForObjects(Type fromType, Type toType)

Parameters

fromType Type

The source type to convert from.

toType Type

The target type to convert to.

Returns

int

A positive integer if TryConvert is supported, zero or a negative value otherwise.

TryConvert(object?, Type, object?, out object?)

Convert a given object to the specified type.

public bool TryConvert(object? from, Type toType, object? conversionHint, out object? result)

Parameters

from object

The object to convert.

toType Type

The type to coerce the object to.

conversionHint object

An implementation-defined value, usually to specify things like locale awareness.

result object

An object that is of the type toType.

Returns

bool

True if conversion was successful.
