	ITypeDescriptorContext^ context
) override

Parameters

context
Type: System.ComponentModel::ITypeDescriptorContext
An object implementing the ITypeDescriptorContext that provides information about a context to a type converter so that the type converter can perform a conversion.

Return Value

Type: System.ComponentModel::TypeConverter::StandardValuesCollection
A TypeConverter::StandardValuesCollection containing the names of the available ADO.NET providers.

The GetStandardValues method uses the GetFactoryClasses method to return a DataTable object containing the ADO.NET provider names. It converts this DataTable to a string array, and then converts this array to a TypeConverter::StandardValuesCollection object.

The context parameter is not used by the GetStandardValues.
