   SYNOPSIS
	 Bio::MAGE::Tools::MGEDOntologyEntry is an abstract class.

	 Superclass is:
	   Bio::MAGE::Tools::OntologyEntry

	 Subclasses are:
	   Bio::MAGE::Tools::MGEDOntologyClassEntry
	   Bio::MAGE::Tools::MGEDOntologyPropertyEntry

       Attributes are simple data types that belong to a single instance of a class. In the Perl implementation of the MAGE-OM classes, the
       interface to attributes is implemented using separate setter and getter methods for each attribute.

       isAssigned
	   Stores whether an assignable concept has been assigned a value or not (dynamic feature)

       errorMessage
	   Stores a possible error message that arose while trying to set the category or more likely value attributes of this class.

       assignableValues
	   Stores the list of values that can be assigned to this category
