ValueFactory.NewValue Method 

Generic XdmValue creation factory method. Value types are enumerated in ValueType. Examples are ValueType.XS_INTEGER, ValueType.XS_BOOLEAN, ValueType.SEQUENCE, ValueType.XS_STRING, etc.

NOTE: If you pass a valueType of ValueType.NODE, it will be treated as ValueType.ELEMENT. Using ValueType.NODE directly is discouraged, it is defined as the common super-type for all node types. Other node types that may be constructed are ValueType.TEXT and ValueType.BINARY. In future releases, creation of additional node value types will be supported.
