NSString format question

Question

Here are two ways to make a NSString.

NSString *sBody = [NSString stringWithString:@"Hello"]

versus

NSString *sBody = @"Hello"

Most of the time, I see it the first way. But is it also "clean" to use the second, or is it better to not use it?

Thanks and have a nice day!

Answer 1

It's the same, the first way you're helping the compiler but it already does a great job optimizing string vars.

Answer 2

They are equivalent. It's less code to use the literal (the second example), so I would just use that.
