Android Eclipse Plugin “reset adb” gives “Adb connection Error:EOF” error, not blocking, but what is it?

Question

I\'m trying to work through their notepad tutorial and it describes how the Eclipse project should automagically build and re-generate the auto-generated code when a file is sav

Answer 1

DDMS uses a long-lived connection to the adb server running locally to get info about connected devices/emulators etc. The error message you posted generally just means that the connection to adb has been lost.

Because you ran the reset command, you essentially just killed and restarted an adb process, so Eclipse showed that harmless warning for a moment.

You can see this yourself by killing the adb process manually. Eclipse will show Connection attempts: n for about 10 attempts before giving up.
