I'm having trouble figuring out the syntax for a JScript .NET dictionary object. I have tried

private var myDictionary: Dictionary<string><string>;

but the compiler complains that it's missing a semicolon and that the Dictionary object is not declared.

I know JScript does have a native dictionary-like object format, but I'm not sure if there are disadvantages to using it instead of the .NET-specific construct. I.e., what if someone wants to extend my script using another .NET language?
