Cast from one generic IDictionary to another

[pierre.k]

Hello,
how can I do a cast like
IDictionary<int, string> as IDictionary<object, string> ?

Thanks in advance for your help,

You can't just cast a generic dictionary with a different key data type. You
can however create the second dictionary, copy the original keys to an int[]
using the Keys.CopyTo method, go through them and populate the new
dictionary with the old data.
