TagId* = distinct int ## \
## A ``TagId`` identifies a tag URI, like for example
## ``"tag:yaml.org,2002:str"``. The URI corresponding to a ``TagId`` can
## be queried from the `TagLibrary <#TagLibrary>`_ which was
## used to create this ``TagId``; e.g. when you parse a YAML character
## stream, the ``TagLibrary`` of the parser is the one which generates
## the resulting ``TagId`` s.
##
## URI strings are mapped to ``TagId`` s for efficiency reasons (you
## do not need to compare strings every time) and to be able to
## discover unknown tag URIs early in the parsing process.
AnchorId* = distinct int ## \
## An ``AnchorId`` identifies an anchor in the current document. It
## becomes invalid as soon as the current document scope is invalidated
## (for example, because the parser yielded a ``yamlEndDocument``
## event). ``AnchorId`` s exists because of efficiency, much like
## ``TagId`` s. The actual anchor name is a presentation detail and
## cannot be queried by the user.
