Bio::Biblio::BiblioBase - an abstract base for other biblio classes

       It is a base class where all other biblio data storage classes inherit from. It does not reflect any
       real-world object, it exists only for convenience, in order to have a place for shared code.

   Accessors
       All attribute names can be used as method names. When used without any parameter the method returns
       current value of the attribute (or undef), when used with a value the method sets the attribute to this
       value and also returns it back. The set method also checks if the type of the new value is correct.

   Customclasses
       If there is a need for new attributes, create your own class which usually inherits from
       Bio::Biblio::Ref. For new types of providers and journals, let your class inherit directly from this
       Bio::Biblio::BiblioBase class.

Mailinglists
       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments
       and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation is much appreciated.

   Support
       Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list: bioperl-l@bioperl.org

       rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look
       at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and
       data examples if at all possible.

   Reportingbugs
       Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track of the bugs and their resolution.
       Bug reports can be submitted via the web:

_accessible
       This method should not be called here; it should be implemented by a subclass

   _attr_type
       This method should not be called here; it should be implemented by a subclass

   AUTOLOAD
       Deal with 'set_' and 'get_' methods

   _wrong_type_msg
       Set methods test whether incoming value is of a correct type; here we return message explaining it

   print_me
       Probably just for debugging TBD: to decide...

new
       The new() class method constructs a new biblio storage object.  It accepts list of named arguments - the
       same names as attribute names prefixed with a minus sign. Available attribute names are listed in the
       documentation of the individual biblio storage objects.
