The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this type or member has the following Resources property value: SharedState. The HostProtectionAttribute does not affect desktop applications (which are typically started by double-clicking an icon, typing a command, or entering a URL in a browser). For more information, see the HostProtectionAttribute class or SQL Server Programming and Host Protection Attributes.
This converter can only convert an enumeration object to and from a string. The class provides the Comparer property to get an IComparer interface that can be used to sort the values of the enumeration. By default, the enumeration values are sorted in the order they appear in the file.
If you want to sort the values into a different order, override the Comparer property.
