Is there anyway to handy convert a dictionary to String?

Question

I found the default implemtation of ToString in the dictionary is not what I want. I would like to have {key=value, ***}.

Any handy way to get it?

Maybe:

string.Join
(
    ",",
    someDictionary.Select(pair => string.Format("{0}={1}", pair.Key.ToString(), pair.Value.ToString())).ToArray()
);

First you iterate each key-value pair and format it as you'd like to see as string, and later convert to array and join into a single string.
