<DD>Deliver the result of the expression as a sequence of events.
<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>
