       string errorMessage,
       bool canOverride
    )
    Public Overloads Sub CancelEdit( _
       ByVal errorMessage As String, _
       Optional ByVal canOverride As Boolean _
    ) 

    Parameters

    errorMessage
    canOverride
    Remarks
    This method is used internally by workflow manager during feature creation. A dialog is always displayed with a fixed title. The override determines if the user can override the cancel.
    Example
    Cancel a delete
    public static void StopADelete()
    {
      // subscribe to the RowDeletedEvent for the appropriate table
      Table table = MapView.Active.Map.GetLayersAsFlattenedList().OfType<FeatureLayer>().FirstOrDefault().GetTable();
      RowDeletedEvent.Subscribe(OnRowDeletedEvent, table);
    }
    
    private static void OnRowDeletedEvent(RowChangedEventArgs args)
    {
      // RowEvent callbacks are always called on the QueuedTask so there is no need 
      // to wrap your code within a QueuedTask.Run lambda.
    
      var row = args.Row;
    
      // cancel the delete if the feature is in Police District 5
    
      var fldIdx = row.FindField("POLICE_DISTRICT");
      if (fldIdx != -1)
      {
        var value = row[fldIdx].ToString();
        if (value == "5")
        {
          //cancel with dialog
          // Note - feature edits on Hosted and Standard Feature Services cannot be cancelled.
          args.CancelEdit("Delete Event\nAre you sure", true);
    
          // or cancel without a dialog
          // args.CancelEdit();
        }
      }
    }
