the code with "option strict on" and "implicit casting from string to integer"
compiles successfully, where it should not. at least MS Compiler gives me
error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to compile the following code.

Option Explicit On

Option Strict On



Class X

        Public Shared Sub Main()

                Dim x As Integer = "5"

        End Sub

End Class




Actual Results:  
it compiled successfully.

Expected Results:  
the sourcecode has "Option Strict On", so the compilation should fail.

when I tested this steps with Microsoft's VB Compiler, it gave me BC30512
