When I clone, build, and run BenchmarkDotNet.Samples I get an error

[dls314]

Hi,

I am having trouble getting started on a project of my own, and I decided to clone, build, and run BenchmarkDotNet.Samples.

I get a similar error in the output log for this as I get for the project of my own.

I think the relevant error is this one:

Unhandled Exception: System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'b7741934-05a7-4539-a38e-d696668ef08d.dll'. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
ExitCode != 0
No more Benchmark runs will be launched as NO measurements were obtained from the previous run!

The whole log is here:
Algo_BitCount.log.txt

hi @dls314

Thanks for a well described bug report!

I have spotted the problem. You are running the latest SDK which by default targets 32 bit RyuJit for .NET Core. It's very new thing, we supported only the 64 bit RyuJit so far.

I will download it and see what I can do.

Ok, I am able to reproduce.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install x86 .NET Core Sdk
2. Install x86 dotnet cli
3. Change the Path variable, make x86 one the default dotnet

@dls314 Before I get more into the details and have the fix ready you can install x64 SDK and make it the defualt one (move it up in the Path variable)

Thanks! I'll do that, I don't need to be using the x86 sdk

@dls314 I have added the support for x86 RyuJit. As soon as this build finishes you can download package with the fix from our CI feed:
