Say I have a method called as .method(true) or .method(false) . I would like to migrate that to .method(SortOrder.ASC) and .method(SortOrder.DESC) respectively. Can I do that with @Deprecated or something similar that can be triggered on an entire project?
(I can easily end up with .method(if(true) SortOrder.ASC else SortOrder.DESC) but I would like to automate the final step)

I guess you could write something like:

@Deprecated
fun method(thing: Boolean) { method(if (true) ASC else DESC) }

fun method(thing: SortedOrder) { ... }

This way your old code can continue calling the old function, and you can use the new code for everything else

I would add a companion method to SortOrder to keep the knowledge of true == ASC in a single place and then use

@Deprecated("Use SortOrder")
fun method(asc: Boolean) {
    method(SortOrder.fromBoolean(asc))
}
