whats wrong with this function in this file : vendor\illuminate\events\Dispatcher.php. the vscode editor is throwing an error, i dont know how to sol

Question

I am trying to run a slim project, and its throwing an error from the Dispatcher file. the error is on this function: public function getListeners($eventName) { $listeners = $this->listeners[$eventName] ?? [];

    $listeners = array_merge(
        $listeners,
        $this->wildcardsCache[$eventName] ?? $this->getWildcardListeners($eventName)
    );

    return class_exists($eventName, false)
                ? $this->addInterfaceListeners($eventName, $listeners)
                : $listeners;
}

any suggestion on how to correct this error?

I could imagine, just as an example, that the `??` is pointed out as syntax error due to your php version not matching the requirements. — arkascha, Sep 04 '22 at 11:42
"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in C:\xampp\htdocs\fypms\vendor\illuminate\events\Dispatcher.php on line 291" that is the error am getting when i try to run the project — Joe Mutambo, Sep 04 '22 at 11:54

Probably your PHP version in VS code is set wrongly. E.g. PHP5.6 when the actual code runs on a higher version.

The null coalescing operator was added in PHP 7.
