ECIO40P16 and Invalid Icon

Hello all.

Using an ECIO40P16, I made one observation today that originally caused quite some confusion...

Exploring available ports I simply placed an output icon a macro, and with masking enabled (highlighting mask-able ports) I was able to quickly explore exposed ports used available to the code. Absent-mindedly however, the file was quickly saved before attending a meeting, and the Output icon was left set on Port A (not available on this module).

Upon my return I completed what I was working on, saved the code, and then experienced a string of errors when attempting to build the code - which also flagged a comment as an error, suggesting an exception somewhere.

Discovering and removing the erroneous output icon fixed it, but worth a mention as it is possible to do without prior warning, and a non-descript bug report that bears no relation to the problem.

All the best,
Brendan
