ArcObjects Library Reference (Editor)  

Editor Library Contents

The Editor library implements ArcMaps object editor, including in this is topological display and editing, and the editing feature geometry and attributes. The library supports both a user interface and a programming API to allow developers to extend the core functionality of the editor with their own editing commands and tasks.
