build dds-provider fail

[TTT-MAC]

Excuse me，When I tried to build the dds provider locally, Run "idlc -l py -I std_msgs/msg -x final NavStatFix.idl" in the generate_py_dataclass.sh file，Alerts me to idlc tool-related issues，Where do I get the idlc tool to convert *.idl files to python files? Are there any recommended open source tools？

best regards.

Hey, have you done these steps from https://github.com/eclipse/kuksa.val.feeders/tree/main/dds2val readme?

chmod u+x ddsproviderlib/idls/generate_py_dataclass.sh
./ddsproviderlib/idls/generate_py_dataclass.sh

You can compare with how continuous integration is setup:

    - name: Run dds tests
      run: |
        cd dds2val
        # Note - if relying on kuksa-client pre-releases you must use --pre on the line below
        pip3 install --no-cache-dir -r requirements/requirements.txt -r requirements/requirements-kml.txt -r requirements/requirements-test.txt
        ./ddsproviderlib/idls/generate_py_dataclass.sh
        python -m pytest tests/*

It is cyclonedds that provides idlc in CI, added by requirements.txt
