Calling schedule with ScheduleJobs

Question

I've been trying to figure out how to call the ScheduleJobs methods within Quartz.Net, but struggling to create the correct parameters it's expecting.

Here's what I've tried:

IJobDetail jobDetail = JobBuilder.Create<ReportJob>()
    .WithIdentity("theJob")
    .Build();
ITrigger everydayTrigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
    .WithIdentity("everydayTrigger")
    // fires 
    .WithCronSchedule("0 0 12 1/1 * ?")
    // start immediately
    .StartAt(DateBuilder.DateOf(DateTime.Now.Hour, DateTime.Now.Minute, DateTime.Now.Second, DateTime.Now.Day, DateTime.Now.Month, DateTime.Now.Year))
    .Build();
ITrigger yearlyTrigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
    .WithIdentity("yearlyTrigger")
    // fires 
    .WithCronSchedule("0 0 12 1 1 ? *")
    // start immediately
    .StartAt(DateBuilder.DateOf(DateTime.Now.Hour, DateTime.Now.Minute, DateTime.Now.Second, DateTime.Now.Day, DateTime.Now.Month, DateTime.Now.Year))
    .Build();
var dictionary = new Dictionary<IJobDetail, ISet<ITrigger>>();
dictionary.Add(jobDetail, new HashSet<ITrigger>() { everydayTrigger, yearlyTrigger });
sched.ScheduleJobs((dictionary, true); // is a cast possible here to IDictionary?

Other attempts;

sched.ScheduleJobs(new [] { jobDetail, new[] { afternoonTrigger } }, true);

&&

sched.ScheduleJobs(new[] { new KeyValuePair<IJobDetail, ITrigger>()}.ToDictionary<IJobDetail, Quartz.Collection.ISet<ITrigger>(), true);

Make sure you use the collections from Quartz's namespace, here's a version of your code that compiles:

IJobDetail jobDetail = JobBuilder.Create<ReportJob>()
    .WithIdentity("theJob")
    .Build();
ITrigger everydayTrigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
    .WithIdentity("everydayTrigger")
    // fires 
    .WithCronSchedule("0 0 12 1/1 * ?")
    // start immediately
    .StartAt(DateBuilder.DateOf(DateTime.Now.Hour, DateTime.Now.Minute, DateTime.Now.Second, DateTime.Now.Day, DateTime.Now.Month, DateTime.Now.Year))
    .Build();
ITrigger yearlyTrigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
    .WithIdentity("yearlyTrigger")
    // fires 
    .WithCronSchedule("0 0 12 1 1 ? *")
    // start immediately
    .StartAt(DateBuilder.DateOf(DateTime.Now.Hour, DateTime.Now.Minute, DateTime.Now.Second, DateTime.Now.Day, DateTime.Now.Month, DateTime.Now.Year))
    .Build();
var dictionary = new Dictionary<IJobDetail, Quartz.Collection.ISet<ITrigger>>();
dictionary.Add(jobDetail, new Quartz.Collection.HashSet<ITrigger>()
                            {
                                everydayTrigger,
                                yearlyTrigger
                            });
sched.ScheduleJobs(dictionary, true);
