Added a note about the lacking features of Yaml Component #4208
Conversation
| One of the goals of Symfony Yaml is to find the right balance between speed and | ||
| features. It supports just the needed features to handle configuration files. | ||
| Notable lacking features are: document directives, multi-line quoted messages, | ||
| compact block collections and multi-document files. |

I think multi-line quoted messages and compact block collections could be fixed easily. I'll have a look at both issues. For the rest, I think we can improve the user experience a lot if we provide more sensible exception messages like the one I mentioned in symfony/symfony#8076.

Agree! But for now, we could add this note to prevent misunderstandings when using this component.

I agree with you. We can update it whenever something changes in the code.

@javiereguiluz This needs a rebase. |

@xabbuh It's no problem - in this case I was able to resolve them. It's mostly a problem when we need to change branches and there's a conflict. Thanks Javier for this! |
