Description
i use the idlc follow the doc (https://cyclonedds.io/docs/cyclonedds-python/0.10.2/idl.html)
idlc -l py hello.idl
and the content of the hello.idl as follows:
module HelloWorldData
{
struct Msg
{
@key
long userID;
string message;
};
};
then the errors occurs:
idlc: cannot load generator py
No default extensibility provided. For one or more of the aggregated types in the IDL the extensibility is not explicitly set. Currently the default
extensibility for these types is 'final', but this may change to 'appendable' in a future release because that is the default in the DDS XTypes specification.
what is the generator py? how to install it?

Research direction
Start with the linked IDL documentation and the idlc -l py hello.idl entry point, then trace how the compiler discovers language generators. Compare the documented command with the reported cannot load generator py output. Done means the documentation explains what the py generator is and how it is installed or otherwise made available.
