Chapter 6. Using the API functions for searching and browsing

This chapter describes how to use the search and browse functions of the Text Extender API. For a detailed description of these functions, refer to Chapter 11, API functions for searching and browsing. Examples of programs that use the API functions are given in Chapter 15, Sample API program. The same chapter describes a sample browse function DesBrowseDocument.
Tip

Before searching, you should read Types of index. A search can produce different results depending on which index type is used. Use GET INDEX SETTINGS to find out which text index type is associated with the text you are searching in.
