IConvertible Interface defines methods for converting value types

 


Public Class Complex : Implements IConvertible
   Private x, y As Double

   Public Sub New(ByVal x As Double, ByVal y As Double)
      Me.x = x
      Me.y = y
   End Sub

   Function GetDoubleValue() As Double
      Return Math.Sqrt((x * x + y * y))
   End Function

   Public Function GetTypeCode() As TypeCode Implements IConvertible.GetTypeCode
      Return TypeCode.Object
   End Function

   Function ToBoolean(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Boolean _
            Implements IConvertible.ToBoolean
      Return x <> 0 OrElse y <> 0
   End Function

   Function ToByte(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Byte Implements IConvertible.ToByte
       Return Convert.ToByte(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToChar(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Char Implements IConvertible.ToChar
      Return Convert.ToChar(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToDateTime(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As DateTime Implements IConvertible.ToDateTime
      Return Convert.ToDateTime(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToDecimal(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Decimal Implements IConvertible.ToDecimal
      Return Convert.ToDecimal(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToDouble(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Double Implements IConvertible.ToDouble
      Return GetDoubleValue()
   End Function

   Function ToInt16(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Short Implements IConvertible.ToInt16
      Return Convert.ToInt16(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToInt32(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Integer Implements IConvertible.ToInt32
      Return Convert.ToInt32(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToInt64(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Long Implements IConvertible.ToInt64
      Return Convert.ToInt64(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToSByte(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As SByte Implements IConvertible.ToSByte
      Return Convert.ToSByte(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToSingle(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Single Implements IConvertible.ToSingle
      Return Convert.ToSingle(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Overloads Function ToString(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As String Implements IConvertible.ToString
      Return String.Format("({0}, {1})", x, y)
   End Function

   Function ToType(ByVal conversionType As Type, ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Object Implements IConvertible.ToType
      Return Convert.ChangeType(GetDoubleValue(), conversionType)
   End Function

   Function ToUInt16(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As UInt16 Implements IConvertible.ToUInt16
      Return Convert.ToUInt16(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToUInt32(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As UInt32 Implements IConvertible.ToUInt32
      Return Convert.ToUInt32(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function

   Function ToUInt64(ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As UInt64 Implements IConvertible.ToUInt64
      Return Convert.ToUInt64(GetDoubleValue())
   End Function
End Class

Public Module Example
   Sub Main()
      Dim testComplex As New Complex(4, 7)

      Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(testComplex))
   End Sub
End Module
