The resource protocol handler should be a singleton service. Please ask the
IO service for getProtocolHandler("resource"), QI that to
nsIResProtocolHandler, and then call setSubstitution(). However, there is a
better way, assuming that your resource: maps to a directory location:
If you want to register for the resource://myfoo/ mappping, you can simply
register a directory service provider for the "resource:myfoo" key: the
resource protocol handler will automatically ask the directory service for
that key and set up the substitution correctly.
