Addon fails to load with error code 193

My addon fails to load when booting up the game. It gives error code 193. My addon is a basic addon which looks like:

#include <reshade.hpp>
#include <iostream>

using std::cout;
using std::endl;

using reshade::register_addon;
using reshade::unregister_addon;

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) const char *NAME = "Frame Capture";
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) const char *DESCRIPTION = "Capture Frames";

BOOL APIENTRY DllMain(HMODULE hModule, DWORD fdwReason, LPVOID) {
switch (fdwReason) {
case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH:
if (!register_addon(hModule)) {
cout << "Failed to register addon." << endl;
return FALSE;
} else {
cout << "Registered addon" << endl;
}
break;
case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH:
cout << "Unregistering addon" << endl;
unregister_addon(hModule);
break;
default:
cout << "fdwReason = " << fdwReason << endl;
break;
}

return TRUE;
}


What is the failure?

 

I fixed the error by using Visual Studio throughout the build and toolchain. I was using the CLion IDE.

Error codes 193 is ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT (see docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/d...-error-codes--0-499- ), which would indicate your previous buildchain just produced a broken DLL.
