cannot be resolved to a valid program memory address

I am using MPLab 5.50 & xc8 2.32. The issue is that some code that was generated by MCC is not compiling correctly while I am trying to debug i.e.



As you can see the break points are broken and PC sees the "{" as code. I have tried everything I can think of to correct this issue to no avail. And when I compile I get "Break point at line 817 in file D:/MPLab Projects/Current Projects/HouseUART.X/mcc_generated_files/i2c1_master.c cannot be resolved to a valid program memory address.



I have:

clean install with MPLab & xc8

completely removed the resource from MCC and added back.

rebuilt the whole project

deleted build, debug and dist folders then recompiled



I hope someone has some insight into this and can help to resolve it

It's because the code doesn't use any memory. Try adding a NOP(); before each break instruction and place the breakpoint on that line.
