Known Subclasses:

Base class which defines the behavior of a read only key-value collection container.

Note: Methods for editing an existing dictionary are also defined in the base class, but left internal on purpose. Subclasses which are supposed to be write-enabled containers must provide their own public methods for editing which might do some custom work and then finally call any of the internal methods in the base class to do the real data editing.
