[quote]“What is the difference between #import and #include? #import is faster and more efficient. When the compiler sees the #include directive, it makes a dumb copy-and-paste of the contents of the file to include. When the compiler sees the #import directive, it first checks to see if another file may have already imported or included the file.”
