converter

I have the need to examine to see if an object can be converted to a specific DataType or not, and came up with this : public static bool TryParseAll(System.Type typeToConvert, object valueToConvert) { bool succeed = false; switch (typeToConvert.Name.ToUpper()) { case "DOUBLE": double d; succeed = double.TryParse(valueToConvert.ToString(), out d); break; case "DATETIME": DateTime dt; succeed = DateTime.TryParse(valueToConvert.ToString(), out dt); break; case "INT16": Int16 i16; succeed = Int16.TryParse(valueToConvert.ToString(), out i16); break; case "INT": Int32 i32; succeed = Int32.TryParse

BalusC My first question is, is there a generic converter for all type of entities? This does indeed not exist in standard JSF. The JSF

I have a dependency property of type collection, when its callback fires based on the count I need to set the visibility of some of the controls on the screen.

I am currently developing a website using the CodeIgniter framework and in one of the Process I need to download a .wav music file and convert it to .mp3 file. All the coding needs to be done only in PHP and I cannot use Ruby or java to do so. And I am currently hosting on a shared env i.e. Dreamhost. So please let me know how to work out this problem. Use FFMPEG . There is a PHP extension for it , but I've found better success just calling exec() . Most hosts I have used (even shared hosting) will install it if it isn't already available.
