PortStyleBase<TVisualextends Visual>

An abstract base class that makes it possible to easily implement a custom IPortStyle.

Remarks

Only createVisual and getBounds need to be implemented by subclasses, however to improve rendering performance it is highly recommended to implement at least updateVisual, too.

This implementation differs from the straightforward IPortStyle implementation in that there is no visible separation between the style and its IPortStyleRenderer. Instead the renderer used by the base class is fixed and delegates all calls back to the style instance.
