      <para>The class you use for conversion must inherit from <see cref="T:System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter" />. Use the <see cref="P:System.ComponentModel.TypeConverterAttribute.ConverterTypeName" /> property to get the name of the class that provides the data conversion for the object this attribute is bound to.</para>
      <para>For more information about attributes, see <format type="text/html"><a href="30386922-1e00-4602-9ebf-526b271a8b87">Extending Metadata Using Attributes</a></format>. For more information about type converters, see the <see cref="T:System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter" /> base class and <format type="text/html"><a href="90373a3f-d8c8-492d-841c-945d62393c56">How to: Implement a Type Converter</a></format>.</para>
      <para>In order to establish a type converter on a custom class that provides type conversion behavior for XAML, you apply the <see cref="T:System.ComponentModel.TypeConverterAttribute" /> attribute to your type. The argument of the attribute references your type converter implementation. Your type converter should be able to accept values from a string that is used for attributes or initialization text in XAML markup, and convert that string into your intended destination type. For more information, see<format type="text/html"><a href="f6313e4d-e89d-497d-ac87-b43511a1ae4b"> TypeConverters and XAML</a></format>.</para>
      <para>Rather than applying to all values of a type, a type converter behavior for XAML can also be established on a specific property. In this case, you apply <see cref="T:System.ComponentModel.TypeConverterAttribute" /> to the property definition (the outer definition, not the specific get and set definitions).</para>
      <para>A type converter behavior for XAML usage of a custom attachable member can be assigned by applying <see cref="T:System.ComponentModel.TypeConverterAttribute" /> to the get method accessor that supports the XAML usage. For more information, see <format type="text/html"><a href="75928354-dc01-47e8-a018-8409aec1f32d">Attached Properties Overview</a></format>.</para>
      <para>For complex XAML serialization cases that require additional state from the object runtime, consider defining a value serializer in addition to a type converter, and attribute both support classes on your custom types or custom members. For more information, see <see cref="T:System.Windows.Markup.ValueSerializer" />.</para>
