Yes, Mathematica 12.0.0. (macOS)
I just ran CloudConnect[]
, which apparently worked OK as it returned as output the value of my $WolframID
. (Shouldn't that happen automatically, when I start Mathematica? When I do, on the Welcome Screen I do see the signing-in process happening automatically.)
But still the same error as before when I try to use
ResourceFunction["SymmetricDifference"][{1, 2, 3}, {3, 4, 5, 6}]
namely, the error message "ResourceObject::notf: The specified ResourceObject could not be found." and the output:
$Failed[{1, 2, 3}, {3, 4, 5, 6}]
Wait... I quit that Mathematica session and opened a new one. Now without evaluating CloudConnect[]
, the input ResourceFunction["SymmetricDifference"][{1, 2, 3}, {3, 4, 5, 6}]
works OK. And so does using the iconized output from ResourceFunction["SymmetricDifference"]
in that same expression.
This mysterious failure then success more or less answers my first question.
Now what about an answer to my 2nd question?
And related to that, what exactly are the distinctions between, and relationships among, the following directories?
~/Library/Wolfram/Objects/DeployedResources/Function
~/Library/Wolfram/Objects/Persistence/ResourceNames
~/Library/Wolfram/Objects/Resources
I note that in the first of those three directories I have a subdirectory SymmetricDifference
containing two items, namely, object.wl
and put.wl
, the second of which includes among its associations:
"ResourceLocations " -> {LocalObject["file:///Users/murray/Library/Wolfram/O\
bjects/Resources/4f3/4f3f7f00-c70a-455e-8bd4-1eaa2b455ae5 "]}
Or do I not need to understand the relationships among those directories in order to intelligently (with understanding) use a ResourceFunction
?
