enum yaml_break_e

Line break types.

Enumerator:

  YAML_ANY_BREAK | Let the parser choose the break type.
  YAML_CR_BREAK | Use CR for line breaks (Mac style).
  YAML_LN_BREAK | Use LN for line breaks (Unix style).
  YAML_CRLN_BREAK | Use CR LN for line breaks (DOS style).

enum yaml_error_type_e

Many bad things could happen with the parser and emitter.

Enumerator:

  YAML_NO_ERROR | No error is produced.
  YAML_MEMORY_ERROR | Cannot allocate or reallocate a block of memory.
