Detailed Description

Single scope for storing variables and functions for use within a QgsExpressionContext.

Examples include a project's scope, which could contain information about the current project such as the project file's location. QgsExpressionContextScope can encapsulate both variables (static values) and functions(which are calculated only when an expression is evaluated).

See QgsExpressionContextUtils for helper methods for working with QgsExpressionContextScope objects.
