How to listen for geoprocessing (GP) events?

kirken

Is it possible to listen when user edits data by using some GP tool e.g . Calculate Field or Delete Field? I want to handle this event similarly when user modifies data in edit session and I'm listening for row events:

 

 

       protected void HookEvents()
        {
            QueuedTask.Run(() =>
            {
                //Listen for row events on a layer
                foreach (var layer in EditorIDLayers)
                {
                    var layerTable = layer.GetTable();
                    _rowCreateToken = RowCreatedEvent.Subscribe(OnRowCreated, layerTable);
                    _rowChangedToken = RowChangedEvent.Subscribe(OnRowChanged, layerTable);
                    _rowDeleteToken = RowDeletedEvent.Subscribe(OnRowDeleted, layerTable);
                }
            });
        }
protected void OnRowChanged(RowChangedEventArgs args)
        {
            if (_lastEdit != args.Guid) //avoid recursion
            {
                EditInfo edit = new EditInfo(args);
                edit.ModifyOperation();

                _lastEdit = args.Guid;
            }
        }
//.../

public EditInfo(RowChangedEventArgs rowEvent)
        {
            _MainViewModel = EditorIDViewModel.GetVM();
            EditOp = rowEvent.Operation;
            ModifiedRow = rowEvent.Row;
        }

 public void ModifyOperation()
        {
            TableDefinition definition = ModifiedRow.GetTable().GetDefinition();
            var attributes = new Dictionary<string, object>();
            attributes.Add(settings.EditorField, _MainViewModel.UserName);
            attributes.Add(settings.DataSourceField, _MainViewModel.SelectedDatasource.Key.Item1);

            EditOp.Modify(ModifiedRow, attributes);
        }

Hi, 

If the GP tool is run within an edit session then the row events should fire.  A GP tool will run in an edit session if there are existing pending edits or if you enable the 'Undo' in the gp tool pane. 

 

 

This is true for the Calculate Field or Delete Rows tools.  but not for Copy, copy Rows, Copy Features etc which do not have the 'Enable undo' checkbox on the tool UI. 

 

What type of data are you using - shapefile, file geodatabase, enterprise, feature service?
