	6	\section{\class{wxFileSystem}}\label{wxfilesystem}
	7
	8	This class provides interface for opening files on different
	9	file systems. It can handle absolute and/or local filenames.
	10	It uses system of \helpref{handlers}{wxfilesystemhandler} to
	11	provide access to user-defined virtual file systems.

	32
	33	\func{void}{ChangePathTo}{\param{const wxString\& }{location}, \param{bool }{is\_dir = FALSE}}
	34
	35	Sets the current location. {\it location} parameter passed to
	36	\helpref{OpenFile}{wxfilesystemopenfile} is relative to this path.
	37
	38	{\bf Caution! } Unless {\it is\_dir} is TRUE the {\it location} parameter
	39	is not directory name but the name of the file in this directory!! All these
	40	commands change path to "dir/subdir/" :
	41
	42	\begin{verbatim}
	43	ChangePathTo("dir/subdir/xh.htm");
	44	ChangePathTo("dir/subdir", TRUE);
	45	ChangePathTo("dir/subdir/", TRUE);
	46	\end{verbatim}
	47
	48	\wxheading{Parameters}
	49
	50	\docparam{location}{the new location. Its meaning depends on value of {\it is\_dir}}
	51
	52	\docparam{is\_dir}{if TRUE {\it location} is new directory. If FALSE (default)
	53	{\it location} is {\bf file in} the new directory.}
	54
	55	\wxheading{Example}
	56
	57	\begin{verbatim}
	58	f = fs -> OpenFile("hello.htm"); // opens file 'hello.htm'
	59	fs -> ChangePathTo("subdir/folder", TRUE);
	60	f = fs -> OpenFile("hello.htm"); // opens file 'subdir/folder/hello.htm' !!
	61	\end{verbatim}
	62
	63	\membersection{wxFileSystem::GetPath}\label{wxfilesystemgetpath}
	64
	65	\func{wxString}{GetPath}{\void}
	66
	67	Returns actual path (set by \helpref{ChangePathTo}{wxfilesystemchangepathto}).
	68
	69	\membersection{wxFileSystem::OpenFile}\label{wxfilesystemopenfile}
	70
	71	\func{wxFSFile*}{OpenFile}{\param{const wxString\& }{location}}
	72
	73	Opens file and returns pointer to \helpref{wxFSFile}{wxfsfile} object
	74	or NULL if failed. It first tries to open the file in relative scope
	75	(based on value passed to ChangePathTo() method) and then as an
	76	absolute path.
	77
	78	\membersection{wxFileSystem::AddHandler}\label{wxfilesystemaddhandler}
	79
	80	\func{static void}{AddHandler}{\param{wxFileSystemHandler }{*handler}}
	81
	82	This static function adds new handler into the list of handlers.
	83	The \helpref{handlers}{wxfilesystemhandler} provide access to virtual FS.
	84
	85	\wxheading{Note}
	86
	87	You can call:
	88
	89	\begin{verbatim}
	90	wxFileSystem::AddHandler(new My_FS_Handler);
	91	\end{verbatim}
	92
	93	This is because (a) AddHandler is a static method, and (b) the handlers
	94	are deleted in wxFileSystem's destructor so that you don't have to
	95	care about it.
