Looking at node_dlang's dub.json, it's building a DLL then
renaming it to module.node. The JS script then causes node to
load the DLL.
So I expect this error may be related to a 32-bit vs. 64-bit
issue. I assume you are on 64-bit Windows, in which case recent
versions of dub compile as 64-bit by default. So if that's the
case, and your installation of node is 32-bit, you would see
this error. Ditto when you're loading a 32-bit DLL in a 64-bit
process.
that's right, I was on 64bit system and node was 32bit
installation (I didn't even realize I installed the 32bit instead
of 64bit). I just installed node 64bit version, that fixed,
thanks!
