How to write it in VB.NET?

Creating a constant Dictionary in C#

Code:

---

Dictionary<string, int> ids = new Dictionary<string, int> {
      {"abc",1}, {"def",2}, {"ghi",3}
    };

---

How to write the same in VB?

vb Code:

Dim ids As New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
ids.Add("abc", 1)
ids.Add("def", 2)
ids.Add("ghi", 3)

It's too obvious to be what I need in :) Sorry...

In VB10 (VS 2010), you can have:

Code:

---

Dim ids As New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)() From {{"abc",1}, {"def",2}, {"ghi",3}}
