Re: Multiple JavaSpaces

I don't understand - ServiceItem instances _include the attributes_
including Name attributes and as your ServiceLocator returns
ServiceItem's all you should need to do is check the appropriate field
of each ServiceItem.

Are you saying the ServiceItem[] returned contains empty attributes
fields or haven't you checked?
