How do I copy the content of a dictionary to an new dictionary in C#?

Question

How can I copy a Dictionary to another new Dictionary so that they are not the same object?

Answer 1

Assuming you mean you want them to be individual objects, and not references to the same object:

Dictionary d = new Dictionary();
Dictionary d2 = new Dictionary(d);

"so that they are not the same object."

Ambiguity abound - if you do actually want them to be references to the same object:

Dictionary d = new Dictionary();
Dictionary d2 = d;

(Changing either d or d2 after the above will affect both)
