NOTE:
Computable Document Format (CDF) is a legacy document type, superseded by Wolfram Notebooks.
Functions can be stored and included in the code of any CDF file.
- Place the package where Wolfram Player can find it. If the package is used only by a specific CDF file, place it in the same folder as your CDF file. If you would like to reuse the package, place it in the Player’s apps folder:
On Windows:
C:\Program Files\Wolfram Research\Wolfram Player\14.1\AddOns\ApplicationsOn macOS:
/Applications/Wolfram Player.app/AddOns/ApplicationsIn either case, note the folder in which you have placed the CDF package.
- Load the package inside the Initialization option for the Manipulate or DynamicModule, providing its complete path:
Initialization -> {Needs["mypackage`", "PathToPackage" <> "mypackage.wl"]}Where “PathToPackage” is the folder from Step 1.
- When calling functions from the package, provide the context of the function, which is the package name. For example, to use myfunc[] from package mypackage.wl, use the following code:
mypackage`myfunc[]
