phpcs version not specified

Question

I spent hours on Google searching for an answer too this before asking, in phpcs I had this error "PHP version not specified", but I couldn't find an answer on Google, eventually I've just came across this "PHP Version 5" which cleared the error up, but I'm baffled as PHP 5 is out of date, I'm on PHP 7.2.10.

If anyone could shed light on this I'd much appreciate it, many thanks.

Edit: I've just added the @ lines at the top, and it breaks the "PHP Version 5" as it's saying "PHP version not specified".

Maybe this can help you. hashbangcode.com/article/… – Shibboleth

thanks, but it didn't fix the issue – Gresham

you check also with *PHP Version 5 with uppercase in v? – Shibboleth

I have yeah, both upper and lowercase – Gresham

To let the sniffs know what version of PHP you are targeting, the php_version configuration option can be used. $ phpcs --config-set php_version 50403 check on: github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/wiki/… – Shibboleth

Answer 1

"php version" All letters will be in lower case

* php version 7.2.10

* Must be placed before @tags

Apparently, the letters don't have to be all lower case, so 'PHP version 8.1.1' works – Oswald
