Allow components that only contain a generator #297

Closed ReinhardKeil closed 8 months ago

ReinhardKeil commented 8 months ago

To start a generator, a component may look like this:

  <component generator="CubeMX" Cclass="Device" Cgroup="CubeMX" Cversion="0.9.0">
      <description>Configure device or board with STM32CubeMX</description>
  </component>

It should be therefore accepted to have a component that contains no files.

The downside of lifting this restriction in the schema is that people may add "empty components". My suggestion previously was to add documentation to the generator component.

<files>
  <file category="doc" name="path/to/generator/CubeMX/generator/flow/documentation.html" />
</files>

Works for me. I think we can close this issue then.
