[ORD 10.11] [C#] IECPropertyValue get display value string

Question

I have a question regarding calculating the value display string for an IECPropertyValue in ORD. I have a piece of code that retrieves the formatted value like this: 
 // IECPropertyValue propertyValue;
var formatter = ECPropertyPane.GetPropertyValueFormatter(propertyValue.Property);
return formatter != null ? formatter.ConvertToExpressionType(propertyValue).ToString() : propertyValue.NativeValue.ToString(); 
 However, I've noticed that this approach doesn't include the unit and rounding a number when returning the value. Is there a way to calculate the value with its unit using API? 
 Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

After some research and experimentation, I managed to figure it out. seems like they moved to ECPropertyValueDisplayStringGetter public string GetFormattedDisplayStringPropertyValue(IECPropertyValue propertyValue)
{
 try
 {
 if (propertyValue == null || propertyValue.IsNull)
 {
 return string.Empty;
 }

 return new ECPropertyValueDisplayStringGetter().GetDisplayString(propertyValue) ?? propertyValue.NativeValue.ToString();
 }
 catch (Exception exception)
 {
 return string.Empty;
 }
}
