void QgsMapCanvas::setSnappingUtils ( QgsSnappingUtils utils)

Assign an instance of snapping utils to the map canvas.

The instance is not owned by the canvas, so it is possible to use one instance in multiple canvases.

For main canvas in QGIS, do not associate a different instance from the existing one (it is updated from the project's snapping configuration).

QgsSnappingUtils * QgsMapCanvas::snappingUtils ( ) const

Return snapping utility class that is associated with map canvas.

If no snapping utils instance has been associated previously, an internal will be created for convenience (so map tools do not need to test for existence of the instance).

Main canvas in QGIS returns an instance which is always up-to-date with the project's snapping configuration.
