is it possible to use a constant as a value?

example:

$class
 ->addConstant('TYPE', '\Foo\Bar::class') // not string ???
 ->setVisibility('protected');

generated:
protected const TYPE = '\Foo\Bar::class';
i need:
protected const TYPE = \Foo\Bar::class;

$class
 ->addConstant('TYPE', new \Nette\PhpGenerator\Literal('\Foo\Bar::class'))
 ->setVisibility('protected');

$class
 ->addConstant('TYPE', new \Nette\PhpGenerator\Literal('\Foo\Bar::class'))
 ->setVisibility('protected');
