ApplyEdits always adds a new point to the map

cristiBJ — Tue, 06 Nov 2012 19:40:55 GMT

I was doing a system based on the citizen serice request sample.

Feature layer displays ok

When I try each of the three lines of code, it always add a new point to the current map, instead of updating, or deleting, it always add a new point to the feature layer.

currentFeature.getLayer().applyEdits([currentFeature], null, null); // to add new point
currentFeature.getLayer().applyEdits(null, [currentFeature], null); // to update attributes
currentFeature.getLayer().applyEdits(null, null, [currentFeature]); // to delete feature

What could possibly wrong, any clues? I have been trying... for 2 weeks. Your help is much appreciated.

Made it working today.
I found out if the point is not exactly the same, the function call applyEdits(null,[UpdateFeature],null) still create a new point feature.
How to close this thread, I helped myself.
