The ToType method is a static extension method provided by the SandboxSystemExtensions class. It is used to convert a string representation of a value to a specified type. This method is particularly useful when you need to dynamically convert strings to various types at runtime.
To use the ToType method, you need to pass a string that represents the value you want to convert and the target type you want to convert it to. The method will return an object of the specified type if the conversion is successful.
Ensure that the string is a valid representation of the target type to avoid runtime exceptions.
// Example usage of the ToType method
string numberString = "123";
Type targetType = typeof(int);
object result = SandboxSystemExtensions.ToType(numberString, targetType);
if (result is int number)
{
// Successfully converted to int
// Use the number variable as needed
}
