Constructor. You probably won't use it. See the Note for details.
It is seldom used by the application programmer but you will need it if
you are writing your own virtual FS. For example you may need something
similar to wxMemoryInputStream, but because wxMemoryInputStream doesn't
free the memory when destroyed and thus passing a memory stream pointer
into wxFSFile constructor would lead to memory leaks, you can write your
own class derived from wxFSFile:
@code
class wxMyFSFile : public wxFSFile
{
private:
void *m_Mem;
public:
wxMyFSFile(.....)
~wxMyFSFile() {free(m_Mem);}
// of course dtor is virtual ;-)
};

If you are not sure of the meaning of these params, see the description
of the GetXXXX() functions.
@param stream
The input stream that will be used to access data
@param location
The full location (aka filename) of the file
@param mimetype
MIME type of this file. It may be left empty, in which
case the type will be determined from file's extension (location must
not be empty in this case).
@param anchor
Anchor. See GetAnchor() for details.
@param modif
Modification date and time for this file.

@class wxFileSystemHandler
Classes derived from wxFileSystemHandler are used to access virtual file systems.

GetAnchor(), GetMimeTypeFromExt().
Please have a look at overview (see wxFileSystem) if you don't know how locations
are constructed.
Also consult the @ref overview_fs_wxhtmlfs "list of available handlers".
Note that the handlers are shared by all instances of wxFileSystem.
@remarks
wxHTML library provides handlers for local files and HTTP or FTP protocol.

The location parameter passed to OpenFile() or CanOpen() methods is always an
absolute path. You don't need to check the FS's current path.
