"FileSystemCardService" is an *interface*, not a concrete class.

So if you want to use those types of services, you have either
to find a card for which there is an implementation of this
class already (such as IBM MFCs, Gemplus MPCOS, GPK8000, etc.)
or to write your own implementation corresponding to the standard
and/or to the card specs.

In fact, for a JavaCard there is no spec of file system. JavaCards
are not "required" to implement a file system, and even if they do,
the "javacard.framework" classes that used to define files classes
in JavaCard 2.0 have been removed from the standard (because,
according to Patrice Perret, nobody could agree on what a file was
and how to use it..).

So, to summarize, in your case you have to :

   1) write a file-system-like Applet/library for your card, and

   2) write the corresponding CardService, on the other side.

Hope it'll help.

Cheers,
Christophe.
