A column converter class implementing the ITypedColumnConverter interface has to implement the following three methods that will be displayed in the Conversion tag tab:

• convertFromObject()
  Converts from dataprovider value to db value

• convertToObject()
  Converts from db value to dataprovider value

• getToObjectType(one of TEXT IColumnTypes constants: TEXT, INTEGER, NUMBER, DATETIME or MEDIA)
  The dataprovider data type (so the resulting type of the convertToObject()).
  This type can be provided by using the IColumnTypes constants.

A column converter class can define properties in the getDefaultProperties() method, which will be displayed in the Conversion tab as well.
