# Interface: com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.asm.decompiler.ast.ICConstant

Top\-level C AST interface to represent a literal or constant value. Constants represent immutable numbers and strings. Refer to the sub\-interfaces. Constant objects are created and retrieved by a [factory](ICConstantFactory).

## Method: duplicate
- return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.asm.decompiler.ast.ICConstant<T>`

Description: This method returns the object itself: constants are generally immutable and do not need to be duplicated in the general case. However, if they need to be duplicated, you may use the method `duplicate2`, if the interface offers it.

## Method: getOrigin
- return type: `java.lang.String`


## Method: getType
- return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.code.asm.decompiler.ast.ICType`


## Method: getValue
- return type: `T`


## Method: isTrueLike
- return type: `boolean`


## Method: setOrigin
