Remarks
This overloaded GetDataConnection method is useful in a scenario in which a client is using a connection from the connection manager and provides the ability for a Visual Studio user to modify the connection. In this narrow scenario, the client needs the ability to update the connection stored in the connection manager with the modified (but equivalent) connection.
