|
CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type) | This method is not used by the Visual Studio SDK. Indicates whether this converter can convert an object in the given source type to a Help context by using the specified format context. (Overrides TypeConverter.CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext, Type).) |
