Search - when does a pile empty?

When exactly does Search trigger? When someone gains the last card, does Search trigger before or after when-gain abilities?
I guess Search itself can't be a when-gain ability, because it's also possible to empty a pile without gaining the last card, and Search would also trigger then.

It happens when a Supply pile becomes empty; if that was due to a gain, it will be timed the same as when-gain. Whatever atomic thing removes the last card; then Search triggers.
