Edit event listener

PurposeThis sample provides the ability to understand when various edit events are fired in response to changes in the editing environment or user actions. Using this sample can help you ascertain which events are appropriate to listen for in various situations, and understand what causes a given event to fire.

How to use

See How to use ArcGIS samples for help on compiling, setting up the debugger, and running the sample.
