It's magic. ;-)

I think it depends on your compiler. In some cases its a function which
returns a CFStringRef from a dictionary using the parameter as the key. I
think in Xcode it can be implemented like a constant C-string:

const char    str[] = "Hello";

Under no circumstances should you release the string returned by CFSTR.

> Why the extra "" after the parameter?

I'm not aware of any extra "". It should just be CFSTR("Hello")
