This seems to be C/C++ code. The article said that C and C++ were not type safe, so "doesn't seem to have any type errors" within C/C++ doesn't mean that it's type safe.

That said, the article did say that Java was type safe, and you can write that same expression in Java. I don't recall whether the result is undefined in Java.

As far as I know, Java has no undefined behavior in the C/C++ sense (nasal demons), and "i=i++" is well defined in Java.
