I use arduino_debug to upload my sketch to an Arduino Mega and to an Arduino Due from my application (Windows).

When JAVA is not installed or it was installed only after the Arduino SW installation, the command: "arduino_debug --port COM6 --upload mysketch.ino" doesn't success to upload the sketch. My Arduino is connected to COM6 (I verified it) and the sketch's path is correct.

I got the following output:

Initializing packages...

Preparing boards...

Verifying...

Sketch uses 6222 bytes (19%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes. Global variables use 318 bytes (15%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1730 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

Anyone saw thise issue? Anyone knows why JAVA must be installed?

Thanks
