How to copy string to clipboard

How do you copy text to the clipboard in Xcode? Currently, I am using the following code:

UIPasteboard *pasteboard = [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard];
[pasteboard setString:shareString];

When I try to paste this into another one of the simulator apps, I end up pasting the entire view controller code. Thanks in advance!
