Use this method to create a context bag on any context provider or to link up a new subcontext bag to a context bag. You must create a context or subcontext bag before you can add context to the context provider. This method returns a pointer to the IVsUserContext interface, which is used to manage the context or subcontext bag. Once you have created an empty context bag, add attributes or keywords to the context bag by calling AddAttribute. To add attributes and keywords to a subcontext bag, call AddSubcontext.
