Question

How do I use the LIFO search with the askSam Web Publisher?

Answer

You need to pass the {LIFO}command when you submit the search

Resolution

Find: {LIFO}C++

Returns all the documents from the newest to the oldest document in the file. In order for the LIFO search to work correctly, all new documents must be added to the End of the file and the search must be a Index based search..

Note: LIFO only works with a search that access the index. You have to search for an indexed word in order for everything to be output in reverse order. LIFO in not a function that does a reverse list of the file, it's a function that simply outputs search results in reverse order.
