title: Performance difference between dot notation versus method call in Objective-C
body: <p>You can use a standard dot notation or a method call in Objective-C to access a property of an object in Objective-C.</p>
  
  <pre><code>myObject.property = YES;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or</p>
  
  <pre><code>[myObject setProperty:YES];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a difference in performance (in terms of accessing the property)? Is it just a matter of preference in terms of coding style?</p>
