title: LogCat & Console stopped working with Eclipse Android Emulator
body: <p>The Console and LogCat printouts stopped working in Eclipse with the Android Emulator.</p>
  
  <p>I'm getting the following Exception in the Console</p>

  <p>Usually when the emulator is loading or updating an apk there's a printout in the Console telling the status. Now the Console is just blank.</p>
  
  <p>I made sure the emulator is selected in the DDMS Tab.</p>
  
  <p>I tried deleting and recreating the emulator in the AVD Manager. I restarted eclipse and the computer. I also updated all of the android and eclipse software in hope that the problem may get fixed. But, to no avail.</p>
  
  <p>It may be related to a problem I had in my code yesterday. There was an unending loop in my code, so I had to stop the emulator mid code running.</p>
