Interface CyGroupAggregationManager

public interface CyGroupAggregationManager
The CyGroupAggregationManager provides a mechanism to add new Aggregators to the group aggregation mechanism. It is meant to be used by apps that want to extend the aggregation mechanism for types not supported by the built-in aggregators.

Cytoscape Backwards Compatibility (API Class): We expect that this class will be used but not inherited by developers using this class. As such, we reserve the right to add methods to the class as part of minor version upgrades. We will not remove methods for any changes other than major version upgrades.
