<DD>Perform type checking of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the second phase of
static optimization.
<p>This checks statically that the operands of the expression have
the correct type; if necessary it generates code to do run-time type checking or type
conversion. A static type error is reported only if execution cannot possibly succeed, that
is, if a run-time type error is inevitable. The call may return a modified form of the expression.</p>
<p>This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved
to the declaration of the function or variable. However, the types of such functions and
variables may not be accurately known if they have not been explicitly declared.</p>
<p>If the implementation returns a value other than "this", then it is required to ensure that
the location information in the returned expression have been set up correctly.
It should not rely on the caller to do this, although for historical reasons many callers do so.</p>

<DD>Static type checking for conditional expressions is delegated to the expression itself,
and is performed separately on each branch of the conditional, so that dynamic checks are
added only on those branches where the check is actually required. This also results in a static
type error if any branch is incapable of delivering a value of the required type. One reason
for this approach is to avoid doing dynamic type checking on a recursive function call as this
prevents tail-call optimization being used.

<DD>Evaluate an expression as a single item. This always returns either a single Item or
null (denoting the empty sequence). No conversion is done. This method should not be

it should not be called if the expression may return a sequence. There is no guarantee that
this condition will be detected.

<DL>
<DD>Return an Iterator to iterate over the values of a sequence. The value of every
expression can be regarded as a sequence, so this method is supported for all
expressions. This default implementation relies on the process() method: it
"pushes" the results of the instruction to a sequence in memory, and then
iterates over this in-memory sequence.
In principle instructions should implement a pipelined iterate() method that
avoids the overhead of intermediate storage.

<p/>
<p>The events (of class <A HREF="../../../../../net/sf/saxon/evpull/PullEvent.html" title="interface in net.sf.saxon.evpull"><CODE>PullEvent</CODE></A>) are either complete
items, or one of startElement, endElement, startDocument, or endDocument, known
as semi-nodes. The stream of events may also include a nested EventIterator.
If a start-end pair exists in the sequence, then the events between
this pair represent the content of the document or element. The content sequence will
have been processed to the extent that any attribute and namespace nodes in the
content sequence will have been merged into the startElement event. Namespace fixup
will have been performed: that is, unique prefixes will have been allocated to element
and attribute nodes, and all namespaces will be declared by means of a namespace node
in the startElement event or in an outer startElement forming part of the sequence.
However, duplicate namespaces may appear in the sequence.</p>
<p>The content of an element or document may include adjacent or zero-length text nodes,
atomic values, and nodes represented as nodes rather than broken down into events.</p>
