Object of class App\View\AppView could not be converted to string

This is a (multiple allowed):

• bug

• enhancement

• feature-discussion (RFC)

• CakePHP Version: 3.5.3.

• Platform and Target: Windows 10, PHP 5.6.28, MariaDB 10.1.19

What you did

Added this line in my head tag in the default layout template (Layout/default.ctp):
<title><?= $this->fetch('title'); ?></title>

Added this line in my home template (Pages/home.ctp):
<?= $this->assign('title', __('The quick brown fox.')); ?>

What happened

It's displaying a warning erro:
Warning (4096): Object of class App\View\AppView could not be converted to string [APP/Template\Pages\home.ctp, line 1]

What you expected to happen

No warning/error should show up.

You should not be echoing void or chaning methods. In this case

<?php $this->...(); ?>

Would be correct, as <?= ... ?> auto-echos.

My bad. I've been writing and reading codes whole day. Thanks @dereuromark!
