Coming from a startup culture, I'm mainly surprised when the project isn't cancelled! :)
It's important to see the code as a means-to-an-end and not a product in an of itself. A lot of programmers get side-tracked and focus entirely on coding instead of building a product. If you're properly involved in the full development it would rarely come as a surprise when something is cancelled, and the reasons are usually quite clear.
Being part of the product also ensures you don't feel like you've lost something personally. It's not your work that has failed, it's the choice to discard the product. Your work was never the product, just part of the effort going to build it. Not a lot different from all the work all those other guys did as well.
