/**
 * {@link NumberConverter} implementation that handles conversion to

 * 
 * This implementation can be configured to handle conversion either
 * by using Short's default String conversion, or by using a Locale's pattern
 * or by specifying a format pattern. See the {@link NumberConverter}
 * documentation for further details.
 * 
 * Can be configured to either return a default value or throw a
 * ConversionException if a conversion error occurs.
