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 except for the error message in console.

[2012-06-17 00:03:26 - ddmlib] Broken pipe java.io.IOException: Broken pipe     at sun.nio.ch.FileDispatcher.write0(Native Method)     at sun.nio.ch.SocketDispatcher.write(SocketDispatcher.java:47)     at sun.nio.ch.IOUtil.writeFromNativeBuffer(IOUtil.java:122)     at sun.nio.ch.IOUtil.write(IOUtil.java:93)     at sun.nio.ch.SocketChannelImpl.write(SocketChannelImpl.java:352)     at com.android.ddmlib.JdwpPacket.writeAndConsume(JdwpPacket.java:213)     at com.android.ddmlib.Client.sendAndConsume(Client.java:575)     at com.android.ddmlib.HandleHeap.sendREAQ(HandleHeap.java:348)     at com.android.ddmlib.Client.requestAllocationStatus(Client.java:421)     at com.android.ddmlib.DeviceMonitor.createClient(DeviceMonitor.java:837)     at com.android.ddmlib.DeviceMonitor.openClient(DeviceMonitor.java:805)     at com.android.ddmlib.DeviceMonitor.processIncomingJdwpData(DeviceMonitor.java:765)     at com.android.ddmlib.DeviceMonitor.deviceClientMonitorLoop(DeviceMonitor.java:652)     at com.android.ddmlib.DeviceMonitor.access$100(DeviceMonitor.java:44)     at com.android.ddmlib.DeviceMonitor$3.run(DeviceMonitor.java:580) 

What could be the cause?

Answer 1

If someone uses both eclipse and android studio together, then this error will be thrown by eclipse. So even if you select the device through DDMS, its gonna throw this error.
