what caused IOException and Broken pipe

Question

My AVD is of API 15, I don\'t know why but the following message keeps coming up whenever I run an application on emulator. It doesn\'t seem to have caused any trouble excep

Answer 1

I guess that the client (Eclipse) communicate with the Server (your Emulator) by Pipe protocol (This protocol is well-know to communicate 2 process on the same machine).

The communication channel can be broken sometimes. (There are possible 100+ reason for that)

To solve this issue: restart the emulator (AVD). Maybe you will have to wait a moment (~1min??) so Eclipse can restore the Pipe channel and your Log Cat will return. Otherwise, restart both Eclipse & the emulator to get rid of this error.
