Description

https://github.com/Autodesk/Aurora/blob/main/Doc/HdAurora.md#deploying-hdaurora

The deployment (**to a USD build from official USD GitHub**) seemed to be successful.

Then I launched usdview with the .usda file without specifying --renderer.

On the UI, I swithed to Aurora.

The dialog messege is in Chinese but should means: **Cannot location program entry point on USD_Build\plugin\usd\hdAurora.dll**.

The error in command line:
Error in 'pxrInternal_v0_22__pxrReserved__::PlugPlugin::_Load' at line 258 in file E:\dp\Sft\3D\USD\pxr\base\plug\plugin.cpp : '**Failed to load plugin 'hdAurora**': ?????????
in 'e:/dp/Sft/3D/USD_Build/plugin/usd/hdAurora.dll''
Error in 'pxrInternal_v0_22__pxrReserved__::HdRendererPluginRegistry::CreateRenderDelegate' at line 100 in file E:\dp\Sft\3D\USD\pxr\imaging\hd\rendererPluginRegistry.cpp : '**Couldn't find plugin for id HdAuroraRendererPlugin**'

Research direction

Start with Doc/HdAurora.md at “Deploying HdAurora” and compare that deployment with the official USD GitHub build used in the report. Reproduce the launch in usdview without --renderer, switch to Aurora, and investigate the hdAurora.dll load error; done means the Aurora renderer loads and HdAuroraRendererPlugin is found.
