public interface IPortStyle extends ICloneable
IPort instances in an IGraph.
Implementations are responsible for rendering IPort instances in a
CanvasControl. It is up to the implementation to interpret the visual appearance of a
port. The framework uses the associated, possibly shared Renderer to perform the actual rendering
of this style for a given port. This interface extends the ICloneable interface. This allows clients to obtain a
persistent copy of the current state of this style. Immutable style implementations may return themselves.
Working with styles (and their style renderers) is explained in detail in the section Visualization of Graph Elements.

Gets the renderer implementation that can be queried for implementations that provide details about the visual
appearance and visual behavior for a given port and this style instance.
