I Closed out of my xcode project a few days ago and when I came back, it keeps crashing! I haven't changed any of the code so I have no idea what happened. I get an EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x0) on strlen inside the NSApplicationMain() method and looking at the error stack, it looks like my application hasn't even launched!
Heres the error stack

You appear to have got your app's persistant state corrupted somehow. If you go into your ~/Library/Saved Application State/ directory and delete the one for your application it should fix it.
