        AutoCreateOption.None, out disposableObjectCollection);
    IDataStoreSchemaExplorer schemaExplorer = (IDataStoreSchemaExplorer)dataStore;
    DbConnectionDataProvider dbConnectionDataProvider =  new DbConnectionDataProvider(
        new DataSchemaProvider(schemaExplorer),
        new DataProvider(schemaExplorer, dataStore),
        disposableObjectCollection);

VB.NET
