Expected Not crash. If what I did is wrong just give me a message it is not possible.

Good catch!
I’m able to reproduce this issue and have placed it into our bug database.

I made a change today so this is handled gracefully. The problem was you are assigning a string (newstringtest) to itself. If you remove that operation (which wouldn’t do anything anyway), it should work fine. Sorry for the trouble!
