What is the maximum number of constraints that can be set when defining a custom parameterized type (generics)?

In C#, when defining a generic type, you can set multiple constraints, but they must all be listed after the type parameter name, separated by a colon.

For example:

class MyClass<T> where T : class, new(), IDisposable
{
    // T must be a reference type, have a public parameterless constructor, and implement IDisposable
}

The maximum number of constraints is not fixed by the language, but it is usually limited to a reasonable number to avoid complicating the code. The main point is that the constraints should be compatible and logical for the type parameter.
