org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable

Hi,

I have a question about the org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable 
interface. My object supports this interface by specifying it in the 
iface definition, and by implementing the Introspect method, but if I 
request the method on the DBus- self object, via  "dbus-send 
--print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus /org/freedesktop/DBus 
org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect", the returned string of 
my implementation of Introspect does not appear in the reply.
So should I understand the interface as a standard, so that if a 
controller wants to get information he requests 
org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect on my object and get this 
information? Or has it some real functional meanings inside the 
implementation of the DBus self object?

I hope you understand my concern ...

TIA,
Steve
