generic inheriting from strongly-typed Dictionary

[John Grandy]

What is the correct syntax for the following :

Public Class EnumList<T> : Dictionary<int, T>
{
}

Or is this even possible ?

Use a lowercase 'P', like this:

public class EnumList<T> : Dictionary<int,T> { }

I will say that the classes in System.Collections.Generic are not
designed for inheritance. You would probably be better off with a
containment model (i.e. keep the Dictionary<,> private), or deriving
from KeyedCollection<T>.
