IEngineEditLayers Interface

Provides access to members that control information about layers in the edit session.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine.

Description

This interface is new at ArcGIS 9.3.

The IEngineEditLayers interface is used to access information about layers involved in an edit session. For example, use IEngineEditLayers to determine if a particular layer involved in an edit session is editable or not; in addition,
use IEngineEditLayers to check or set the editor�s current layer and current subtype.

The target layer determines which layer will receive newly created features. Edit tasks and commands that create new features use this property to determine to which layer to write out the new features.
