Syntax

C#
public OrderedDictionary( IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>> keysAndValues, IComparer<TKey> comparer )

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Sub New ( _ keysAndValues As IEnumerable(Of KeyValuePair(Of TKey, TValue)), _ comparer As IComparer(Of TKey) _ )

Visual C++
public: OrderedDictionary ( IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>>^ keysAndValues, IComparer<TKey>^ comparer )

keysAndValues: IEnumerable<(Of <KeyValuePair<(Of <TKey, TValue>)>>)>
A collection of keys and values whose contents are used to initialized the dictionary.

comparer: IComparer<(Of <TKey>)>
An instance of IComparer<TKey> that will be used to compare keys.

The GetHashCode and Equals methods of the provided IComparer<TKey> will never be called, and need not be implemented.
