Generate renderer

Description

This sample uses ArcGIS Server to generate a Natural Breaks renderer with five classes. Note that this functionality requires an ArcGIS Server 10.1 instance.

The generate renderer task can also generate unique value renderers and can also generate color ramp(s) from two or more colors.
