Re: Managing a connection using D-Bus API

[Sathia Narayanan <msathia gmail com>]

while all of you are at it I would like to point out that the nm-tool doesnt behave as expected. Seems like te detail_device() function code is all messed up. Can you suggest i can use any other function that does the same job that I can replace in nm-tool.c main function cal?

Thanks! One thing I notice is that you'll want to use nm.devices_map()
in a few places rather than looping through nm.devices() and
organizing by type. You also can just do "for key in dict" rather than
"for key in dict.keys()".

Other than some minor style things, I don't really see anything too
bad with it. I do plan to change the DeviceType stuff so you don't
need those dicts all over... What's the issue you're currently running
into with it?
