How to load YAML file via yaml-cpp?

I am very new to yaml-cpp. I tried the simplest program, but it failed and, and I couldn't find the answer from GitHub repository.

#include <iostream>
#include "yaml-cpp/yaml.h"

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    YAML::Node config = YAML::LoadFile("sample.yaml");
    return 0;
}

sample.yaml sample from the official YAML website:

This is the error message:

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type YAML::BadFile: yaml-cpp: error at line 0, column 0: bad file

Is it the library building problem or a YAML syntax problem or an issue with my API usage?

I am using yaml-cpp version 0.5.1.

It appears that yaml-cpp can't find your file. Have you been able to load any file? Make sure that the file is in the working directory of your program, and for sanity's sake, make sure that you can load a very simple file first.
