Yaml-cpp parsing lines

Question

Is it possible to parse YAML formatted strings using yaml-cpp?

There is no constructor YAML::Parser::Parser(std::string&) . (I get the YAML string via libcurl from the http server.)

Answer 1

Try using stringstream :

 std::string s = "name: YAML from libcurl"; std::stringstream ss(s); YAML::Parser parser(ss); 

Answer 2

In the new version, you can directly parse the string (see here ):

 YAML::Node node = YAML::Load("[1, 2, 3]");
