Comments:

Could you please try this syntax "<cfset theCount = 0++>" in  coldfusion 2018.0.05.315699, as I get the below mentioned error in CF2018 latest update. "Invalid CFML construct found on line 1 at column 20". looks like the syntax is incorrect, so it's throwing exception. Post increment operator can used with variables and not the numbers. Please let us know the steps to repro this issue and also the build# on which you are running.

I just ran this on cffiddle 2016 update 13 and 2018 update 6. In both cases an error was thrown. OK to close this issue
