I have been able to upload code onto my ESP8266 for quite a long time and I think (I think) one of the last update broke something cause since a few days I'm getting:

I am able to use esptool on command line to communicate with the ESP:
$ esptool.py --port /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART erase_flash
esptool.py v2.2.1

I get this when attempting an "Upload Using Programmer" to an ESP8266 board, which is the expected result since that operation is not supported by the ESP8266 core for Arduino. Are you holding the shift key while clicking the upload button, using the Ctrl + Shift + U keyboard shortcut, or Sketch > Upload Using Programmer when uploading?
Not sure how I ended up pressing shift but yes that was the problem.
Think it might have worked in the past when uploading to esp8266 was still a programmer?
Thanks for pointing that out.
Hi
Could help explaining what is the difference between Ctrl + Shift + U keyboard shortcut AND Sketch > Upload Using Programmer when uploading? It happens I'm facing the same java error.

Hello,
I have been able to upload code onto my ESP8266 for quite a long time and I think (I think) one of the last update broke something cause since a few days I'm getting:
I am able to use esptool on command line to communicate with the ESP:
Versions
Arduino IDE: 1.8.5
esp8266 board package: 2.4.1
Google has not been able to help this time :-( Any hint will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
