Trying to create a new zip archive in a virtual file (OS4). I did not succed.

@REQUIRE "zip" 
virtfile$ = DefineVirtualFileFromString("","Archive.zip",True)
id = zip.OpenArchive(Nil, virtfile$, #MODE_WRITE)

Error opening zip archive Archive.zip!
The docs does not say any limitation about this.

Bug or misuse?

Bug. Apparently I have never implemented write support for virtual files because it's quite a lot of work so if you want to write zip files, you always have to use real files for the time being.
