Using the triple-shift (>>>) operator in Dart

Question

Supposedly Dart 2.14 included the triple shift operator (>>>), but when I try to use it I get an error:

print(0xff >>> 1);

The compiler highlights the last > of the three and says:

Expected an identifier.

This is true on my local machine and in DartPad. Both are using the version of Dart 2.14 shipped with Flutter 2.5.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a problem with the release?

Any language features that are introduced in a given version require that version as the minimum constraint for your project. This means you need to update your pubspec.yaml:

environment:
  sdk: '>=2.14.0 <3.0.0'

Now, you can use:

var foo = 42;
foo >>> 2;
