title: Using a BOOL property
body: <p>Apple recommends to declare a BOOL property this way:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@property (nonatomic, assign, getter=isWorking) BOOL working;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As I'm using Objective-C 2.0 properties and dot notation, I access this property using <code>self.working</code>. I know that I could also use <code>[self isWorking]</code> — but I don't have to.</p>
  
  <p>So, as I'm using dot notation everywhere, why should I define an extra property? Would it be okay to simply write</p>
  
  <pre><code>@property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL working;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Or do I have any benefits writing <code>getter=isWorking</code> in my case (usage of dot notation)?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
