An answer re: Broken pipe error

For the greater good of humanity I want to post what I think may be the answer to my question of a few minutes ago.
It occurred to me that I have a very large number of applications open while working with XCode. Perhaps I was coming up against some limit associated with that, though this Mac has lots of memory as well as disk space. So I quit all the other applications and tried again: the project now compiles without error.
So: everyone can tuck that away for future use.

Here I've been plowing along for months revising a large existing project, everything looking good, and suddenly am unable to Build owing to multiple errors:


fatal error: error writing to -: Broken pipe

First time this happened I quit XCode 3.1, relaunched, and the build proceeded without errors. So did some subsequent builds, for a few hours. But now the broken pipes are back and quitting XCode no longer cures the problem. The HD checks out OK. Haven't changed my login. Nothing much else has changed, except for adding a few more lines of code.

The location of each error seems to be the end of every .cp file in the project. Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this very disturbing result?

Thanks, Jeff
