Issue with building an Angular 2 RC router link with a route parameter

I am in reference to Angular 2 documentation about the RC router route parameters:

Here is what is mentioned in the documentation about constructing a router link with a route parameter:

['HeroDetail', { id: hero.id }] // {id: 15}

This is supposed to produce the following link:

localhost:3000/hero/15

I have the following link:

<a [routerLink]="['/dashboard/messageconversation/', {otherId: getOther(message).id}]">

and it produces the following link (notice the semicolon as well as the query parameter instead of the route parameter):

http://localhost:8080/dashboard/messageconversation;otherId=2

Here is the @Routes definition:

{path: '/messageconversation/:otherId', component: MessageConversationComponent}

Can anyone please tell me what I am getting wrong?

It turns out the proper way to add a route parameter (as opposed to query parameter) is to pass the parameter as the second element of the array as follows:

<a [routerLink]="['/dashboard/messageconversation', getOther(message).id]">

Credits go to stuntbaboon for directing me to the relevant post.
