Php_codesniffer: "continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"

This has already been fixed via https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/pull/2086. I suggest closing this issue.

[CMalvika]

@jrfnl i guess the version isn't released yet!

[jrfnl]

@CMalvika Correct, the fix will be included in the upcoming 3.3.1 release.

[OneCodeMonkey]

face the same question too.

[jrfnl]

@OneCodeMonkey As stated above: upgrade your PHPCS version to 3.3.1 or higher.

[anshulsh13m]

You install the Latest PHPCS version (above 3.3.x).

Try the following command

uninstall the PHPCS
sudo apt-get autoremove --purge php-codesniffer

Install the new version of PHPCS
sudo apt install php-pear
sudo apt-get update -y
sudo pear install PHP_CodeSniffer-3.5.4
