maintain forward slash in ios string

I'm trying to do the following in xcode:

NSString *URL = @"http://someUrl/page.php";
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:URL]];

but I'm not sure if the forward slashes are maintained when they are in double quotes. I don't know what the rules are for ios characters in single/double quotes.

does the URL String remain exactly as was declared in the quotes? thanks

You can do that, I've used that often without any problems. If you wanted the backslash (\), then you would have to escape it.

The string in your example will be exactly as you declared it. For reference, \ is the escape character for strings in objective-c. If you want to use a backslash, you would then have to double it (e.g., \\).
