SnippetContext

Description:

[ CCode ( type_id = "gtk_source_snippet_context_get_type ()" ) ]
public sealed class SnippetContext : Object

Context for expanding [class@SnippetChunk].

This class is currently used primary as a hashtable. However, the longer term goal is to have it hold onto a `GjsContext` as well as other languages so that [class@SnippetChunk] can expand themselves by executing script within the context.

The [class@Snippet] will build the context and then expand each of the chunks during the insertion/edit phase.
