)

VBRequest Example

<ExtensionAttribute>
Public Shared Function ToTypeDefault ( 
	value As IConvertible,
	targetType As Type,
	provider As IFormatProvider
) As Object

C++Request Example

public:
[ExtensionAttribute]
static Object^ ToTypeDefault(
	IConvertible^ value, 
	Type^ targetType, 
	IFormatProvider^ provider
)

F#Request Example

[<ExtensionAttribute>]
static member ToTypeDefault : 
        value : IConvertible * 
        targetType : Type * 
        provider : IFormatProvider -> Object

Parameters

value IConvertible: The IConvertible to convert.
targetType Type: The Type to which the value of this instance is converted.
provider IFormatProvider: An IFormatProvider interface implementation that supplies culture-specific formatting information.

Return Value

Object
An Object instance of type conversionType whose value is equivalent to the value of this instance.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IConvertible. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

This method does not call ToType(Type, IFormatProvider) so that it can be used as a default implementation for that method.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException	If value or targetType are null.
InvalidCastException	If the value cannot be converted using a method from IConvertible.
