Arcpy Edit tool

Question

Hi , help How can we start the arcmap Edit Session and also activate the Edit Tool using Arcpy , programmatically Requirement : I have created 2 python addins 1. Line tool 2. Button using the line tool i can draw a line feature but after finish the Line drawing need to select an annotation text in the map , for this i need to use Edit Tool automatically to select the Annotation . Also sample D: \Sample.gdb is created for workspace and CrossLine ( Line featureclass is created in the gdb) . Please make the corrections in the below code. import arcpy import pythonaddins from arcpy import edit as EDIT class Btn(object): """Implementation for Python_Snaptool_addin.button (Button)""" def __init__(self): self.enabled = True self.checked = False def onClick(self): pass class Edit_Operations(object): """Implementation for Python_Snaptool_addin.extension20 (Extension)""" def __init__(self): # For performance considerations, please remove all unused methods in this class. self.enabled = True #edit = arcpy.da.Editor(r'D:\Sample.gdb') #self.onStartEditing() def startup(self): pass def onStartEditing(self): pythonaddins.MessageBox('Select a data frame', 'INFO', 0) pass def onStopEditing(self, save_changes): pass def onStartOperation(self): pass def beforeStopOperation(self): pass def onStopOperation(self): pass def onSaveEdits(self): pass def onCreateFeature(self): pass class LineClass(object): """Implementation for Python_Snaptool_addin.tool (Tool)""" def __init__(self): self.enabled = True self.shape = "Line" # Can set to "Line", "Circle" or "Rectangle" for interactive shape drawing and to activate the onLine/Polygon/Circle event sinks. def onMouseDown(self, x, y, button, shift): pass def onMouseDownMap(self, x, y, button, shift): pass def onMouseUp(self, x, y, button, shift): pass def onMouseUpMap(self, x, y, button, shift): pass def onMouseMove(self, x, y, button, shift): pass def onMouseMoveMap(self, x, y, button, shift): pass def onDblClick(self): pass def onKeyDown(self, keycode, shift): pass def onKeyUp(self, keycode, shift): pass def deactivate(self): pass def onCircle(self, circle_geometry): pass def onLine(self, line_geometry): global mid_point edit = arcpy.da.Editor(r'D:\Sample.gdb') array = arcpy.Array([arcpy.Point(line_geometry.firstPoint.X,line_geometry.firstPoint.Y),arcpy.Point(line_geometry.lastPoint.X,line_geometry.lastPoint.Y)]) polyline = arcpy.Polyline(array) edit.startEditing() edit.startOperation() cursor = arcpy.da.InsertCursor("CrossLine", ["SHAPE@"]) cursor.insertRow([polyline]) del cursor mid_point = arcpy.Point() mid_point.X= line_geometry.positionAlongLine(0.50,True).firstPoint.X mid_point.Y= line_geometry.positionAlongLine(0.50,True).firstPoint.Y edit.stopOperation() edit.stopEditing(True) ## Stop the edit session with True to save the changes arcpy.RefreshActiveView() obj = Edit_Operations() pass def onRectangle(self, rectangle_geometry): pass ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Thakns Gopi

Gopi, could you format your code please.  As posted it won't work and there are no line numbers to reference
