Two and One Way Converter Examples Don't Work

[Vossossity]

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Description

The given examples for creating a two way converter and one way converter have the wrong return types.
The code as written for the two way coverter is:

public class BoolToColorConverter : BaseConverter<bool, Color>
{
    public override Color DefaultConvertReturnValue { get; set; } = Colors.Orange;

    public override bool DefaultConvertBackReturnValue { get; set; } = false;

    public override string ConvertFrom(bool value, CultureInfo? culture)
    {
        return value ? Colors.Green : Colors.Red;
    }

    public override int ConvertBackTo(Color value, CultureInfo? culture)
    {
        return value == Colors.Green;
    }
}

it should be

public class BoolToColorConverter : BaseConverter<bool, Color>
{
    public override Color DefaultConvertReturnValue { get; set; } = Colors.Orange;

    public override bool DefaultConvertBackReturnValue { get; set; } = false;

    public override Color ConvertFrom(bool value, CultureInfo? culture)
    {
        return value ? Colors.Green : Colors.Red;
    }

    public override bool ConvertBackTo(Color value, CultureInfo? culture)
    {
        return value == Colors.Green;
    }
}

The one way converter has the same issue with the overide for ConvertFrom()
