encodeURIComponent equivalent object-c

Question

I'm having trouble googling this.

Does Objective-C have an equivalent method for encoding URI Component?

http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_encodeuricomponent.asp

This seems to be a very common use case but I can't find any documentation about it in Objective-C.

Thanks.

-[NSString stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:] is the simplest way to do this.
