[PATCH] dbus-specification: fix GetConnectionCredentials  description

(In reply to Lukasz Skalski from comment #0)
> GetConnectionCredentials method returns a{sv} - ARRAY of
> DICT<STRING,VARIANT>, not {sv} as it described in dbus-specification.xml

No, it returns a{sv}, "DICT<STRING,VARIANT>", which is shorthand for ARRAY<DICT_ENTRY<STRING,VARIANT>> (please note the distinction between a dict and a dict-entry). GetAll() on the Properties interface is the same.

Conceptually, the common "dict" pattern is just like a dict in Python: it takes 0 or more key/value pairs. In the wire protocol we use an ARRAY<DICT_ENTRY<k,v>> to represent that pattern.

I'd review a patch to clarify that a dict is synonymous with an array of dict-entries, but Attachment #114729 [details] is not correct.

Thanks for clarification. I've just changed status to NOTABUG.
