What do two question marks together mean in C#?

Question

Ran across this line of code:

FormsAuth = formsAuth ?? new FormsAuthenticationWrapper();

What do the two question marks mean, is it some ki

Answer 1

It's short hand for the ternary operator.

FormsAuth = (formsAuth != null) ? formsAuth : new FormsAuthenticationWrapper();

Or for those who don't do ternary:

if (formsAuth != null)
{
  FormsAuth = formsAuth;
}
else
{
  FormsAuth = new FormsAuthenticationWrapper();
}
