      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      For a variable "a" of type Integer, if a is referenced in the first operand of the ternary conditional operator ? : and is used with a postfix operator in the third operand of the ternary conditional operator ? :, the compiler throws an AssertionError.

      REGRESSION : Last worked in version 11.0.2

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      1. Save the code entered below in the "Source code for an executable test case" box in a file named CompilerTest.java.
      2. Run "javac CompilerTest.java".

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      The compiler produces a file named "CompilerTest.class".
      ACTUAL -
      The compiler produced the following output.

      An exception has occurred in the compiler (12.0.1). Please file a bug against the Java compiler via the Java bug reporting page (http://bugreport.java.com) after checking the Bug Database (http://bugs.java.com) for duplicates. Include your program and the following diagnostic in your report. Thank you.
