new
fun <T> MetadataProvider.newLiteral(value: T, type: Type? = UnknownType.getUnknownType(), code: String? = null, rawNode: Any? = null): Literal<T>
Creates a new Literal. This is the top-most Node that a LanguageFrontend or Handler should create. The MetadataProvider receiver will be used to fill different meta-data using Node.applyMetadata. Calling this extension function outside of Kotlin requires an appropriate MetadataProvider, such as a LanguageFrontend as an additional prepended argument.
