Order of evaluation when using an increment operator to set the value of statement parameters

Question

Is this the proper syntax in order to set the parameters of a previously generated preparedstatement? Which occurs first, the addition of 1 to the variable i, or the usage of the variable in setting the parameter?

int i=1;
for (TagInfo tag : scannedTags){
    //Pull the tag from the dbo.Tags table that matches the SiteID and TagOffSet values of the current tag in the alarm_tags list 
    //Set parameters for the prepared statement
    dbStmtTag.setInt(i++, tag.getSiteID());
    dbStmtTag.setInt(i++, tag.getTagOffset());
}

If the order of operations is that the value is incremented first, I would assume I can just add 1 AFTER setting the parameter. I'm merely asking for the sake of brevity in my code.

[To test the behaviour of i++ for myself] I'd have to write an entire test application that talks to a test database, which I would need to create.

Nonsense. All you would need to do is ...

public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
        int i = 1;
        System.out.printf("i is %d%n", i);
        System.out.printf("i++ returned %d%n", i++);
        System.out.printf("i is now %d%n", i);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace(System.err);
    }
}

... which produces ...

i is 1
i++ returned 1
i is now 2
