Couldn't load codegen backend, specified module could not be found

リンクされた rust-cuda-basic プロジェクトと getting started guide を使って失敗を再現し、その後、17 行目付近の build.rs と、Windows で rustc_codegen_nvvm DLL を読み込むコマンドを調査してください。DLL のパスが存在するにもかかわらず LoadLibraryExW がモジュール不足を報告する理由を確認してください。不足している依存関係または設定を特定し、Windows のビルドパスを文書化または修正できれば完了です。

Hi,

I'm trying to build the example described in the getting started guide on Windows but I got an error:

But the codegen backend path does exist:

Any idea on what the actual problem is?

I'm using the prebuilt LLVM and CUDA 13.
