Property Value

A reference to a ForeignKeyConverter, which allows custom key/value mappings to be provided.

By default, foreign key constraints defined by a DataTable or DataView as well as enums can be automatically detected; however, through a ForeignKeyConverter, custom key/value mappings can also be defined. When providing custom key/value mappings, a foreign key converter must be created by deriving from the ForeignKeyConverter class and overriding its GetKeyFromValue and GetValueFromKey methods in which the value for a specified key and the key for a specified value should be returned (see implementation of PersonForeignKeyConverter class in Example 2). This converter can then be provided to the ForeignKeyConverter property of either a foreign key description or configuration.

If a ForeignKeyConverter has not been explicitly provided for a ForeignKeyConfiguration, the converter from its corresponding DataGridForeignKeyDescription will be used.
