 * @class GSkyRegion
 *
 * @brief Abstract interface for the sky region class
 *
 * This class provides an abstract interface for a sky region. The sky region 
 * is defined by an array of parameters names and values specific to the 
 * derived class where the region type or shape is implemented. 
 * 
 * Accessible information elements are:
 * - Type of the region (circle, rectangle,...)
 * - Solid angle subtended by the region
 * 
 * The object can be initialised from a string in the DS9 region file format,
 * and return its description as a string in the DS9 region file format. The 
 * input/ouput to/from files is handled in the container class GSkyRegions.
