What is the correct string specifier for _cmd?

Question

I use %s for _cmd, the latest XCode will generate an error "Format specifies type char * but the argument has type SEL". Checked documentation and couldn't find a clue. Anyone know the correct string specifier to use?

I've never done Apple programming in my life, so bear with me, but a little Googling revealed easily that:

to convert SEL to NSString use NSStringFromSelector
Then use the %@ format specifier on that.

Thanks Christian, that's it. I didn't try to think converting it to string then use existing specifier. – lichen19853 Jul 04 '12 at 19:09
