I have the following component mapping in Windsor xml:

<component
  id="dataSession.DbConnection"
  service="System.Data.IDbConnection, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"
  type="System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"
  lifestyle="custom"
  customLifestyleType="MyCompany.Castle.PerOperationLifestyle.PerOperationLifestyleManager, MyCompany.Castle">
  <parameters>
    <connectionString>server=(local);database=MyCompany;trusted_connection=true;application name=OperationScopeTest;</connectionString>
  </parameters>
</component>

<component
  id="dataSession.DataContext"
  service="System.Data.Linq.DataContext, System.Data.Linq, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=B77A5C561934E089"
  type="MyCompany.BusinessLogic.MyCompanyDataContext, MyCompany.BusinessLogic"
  lifestyle="custom"
  customLifestyleType="MyCompany.Castle.PerOperationLifestyle.PerOperationLifestyleManager, MyCompany.Castle">
  <parameters>
    <connection>${dataSession.DbConnection}</connection>
  </parameters>
</component>

However, when I ask the container for a DataContext, it actually uses the constructor requiring a connection string, despite the ${dataSession.DbConnection} being an IDbConnection.

Why is this, and how to I make Windsor use the correct constructor?
