Need help with CslaContrib template VB CodeSmith 2.0

Hello Everyone.

I'm new to the templates and i'm trying to generate a ReadOnlyRootList.  My list object is called JobInfoList.  I've tried creating my JobInfo class from both ReadOnlyChild and ReadOnlyRoot and can't get either to work.  When I use ReadOnlyChild it gets to the following method in the JobInfoBase class and fails

        Friend Shared Function GetJobInfo(ByVal dr As SafeDataReader) As T
            Dim child As T = DataPortal.Create(Of T)()
            child.Fetch(dr)
            Return child
        End Function

"Csla.DataPortalException: DataPortalFetch failed(System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Paramerter name: element"

If I use ReadOnlyRoot I get a compiler issue on this line in my JobInfoBase class.

  Me.Add(JobInfoBase(Of C).GetJobInfo(dr))

Can someone help me out to find out what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

Nevermind... I got it.  I had to change the signature of my DataPortal_Create from

Private Sub DataPortal_Create(ByVal criteria As Object)

to

Private Sub DataPortal_Create()
