Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.
Description
ILayer2 is a generic interface for all layer objects. This interface has a method to draw the layer and provides access to generic layer properties. This interface adds to what is supported by ILayer by adding a property that indicates whether or not the scale range properties are read only and a property that lets you set the layer's area of interest.

Cached | Indicates if the layer needs its own display cache. |
 |
Draw | Draws the layer to the specified display for the given draw phase. |
|
