Gets a string representation of the mappings in a dictionary. The string representation starts with "{", has a list of mappings separated by commas (", "), and ends with "}". Each mapping is represented by "key->value". Each key and value in the dictionary is converted to a string by calling its ToString method (null is represented by "null"). Contained collections (except strings) are recursively converted to strings by this method.
