int main() {
    // create a YAML node.
    fkyaml::node n = 123;

    // try to get an anchor name before any anchor name has been set.
    try {
        std::cout << n.get_anchor_name() << std::endl;
    }
    catch (const fkyaml::exception& e) {
        std::cout << e.what() << std::endl;
    }

    // set an anchor name to the node.
    n.add_anchor_name("anchor");
    std::cout << n.get_anchor_name() << std::endl;
