[packchk] unknown generator not detected ?

[jeromecoutant]

Hi

In my pdsc, I have components with
<component generator="STM32Gen" Cclass="Device" Cgroup="xxx" Csub="xxx" Cversion="0.4.0" condition="xxx">

But there is no <generator** id="STM32Gen">

Maybe packchk tool could raise an error for that ?

The Global Generator concept that is implemented does not require a <generator> element.

Please review this section:
https://github.com/Open-CMSIS-Pack/cmsis-toolbox/blob/main/docs/build-operation.md#generator-start-via-component

Therefore we cannot issue an error with packchk.

packchk could read the global.generator.yml file in the ..\etc\ directory to find out about the registered generator IDs.
