This converter can only convert a 16-bit unsigned integer object to and from a string.

The UInt16 value type represents unsigned integers with values ranging from 0 to 65535. This data type is not supported in Visual Basic.

NoteNote:

You should never create an instance of a UInt16Converter. Instead, call the GetConverter method of TypeDescriptor. For more information, see the examples in the TypeConverter base class and How to: Implement a Type Converter.

The following example converts a variable of type UInt16 to a string and vice versa.

'This data type is not supported in Visual Basic.

int myUInt16 = 10000;
String myUInt16String = "20000";
Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter((UInt16)myUInt16).
    ConvertTo((UInt16)myUInt16, String.class.ToType()));
Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter((UInt16)myUInt16).
    ConvertFrom(myUInt16String));

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
