1240792 - Add a test for assigning to primitives in strict mode

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Tom S [:evilpie]]

In strict mode code like this throws:

  "use strict";
  "abc".hey = 1;

However I believe we currently don't test this.

Thanks!

But what is up with that error message?

    typein:1:15 TypeError: can't assign to properties of (new Boolean(true)): not an object

WAT!
