Writing a YAML document consists of instantiating reference-counted objects that represent the mapping, sequences, scalars, and alias references that form a YAML document. Each one of these objects are paired with a functor or a lambda, that gets invoked to create the values for its corresponding object.
The object that represents the YAML document's top
level node gets returned by a lambda or a functor that's attached to a
x::yaml::newdocumentnode.
x::yaml::newdocumentnodesx::yaml::newnode list_of_highest_points_to_yaml(); // ... x::yaml::newdocumentnode highest_points=x::yaml::make_newdocumentnode ([] { return list_of_highest_points_to_yaml(); });
x::yaml::newdocumentnode
is an object that represents a new YAML
document that gets written to an output iterator.
Each x::yaml::newdocumentnode gets created
by x::yaml::make_newdocumentnode,
whose parameter is a
lambda or a functor. The functions described in the next section
invoke the lambda or the functor to retrieve
the object that represents the
document's top level node, a sequence or mapping.
The top level's lambda/functor consequently constructs the values that go
into the sequence or
mapping, and their corresponding lambda/functors
then construct the corresponding
objects, and so on, until the entire document gets formed.
highest_point->start_implicit=false;
The reference-counted object referenced by a
x::yaml::newdocumentnode has several
members.
start_implicit (true by default)
Specifies whether the document's start indicator is implicit.
end_implicit (true by default)
Specifies whether the document's end indicator is implicit.
tags
This is a std::map<std::string, std::string>
that maps YAML
tags to prefixes.
