这里有NSArray和NSDictionary的类别，让这个超级简单。我添加了一个漂亮打印的选项(换行符和制表符使阅读更容易)。

@interface NSDictionary (BVJSONString)
-(NSString*) bv_jsonStringWithPrettyPrint:(BOOL) prettyPrint;
@end

.

@implementation NSDictionary (BVJSONString)

  -(NSString*) bv_jsonStringWithPrettyPrint:(BOOL) prettyPrint {
     NSError *error;
     NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:self
                                                   options:(NSJSONWritingOptions)    (prettyPrint ? NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted : 0)
                                                     error:&error];

     if (! jsonData) {
        NSLog(@"%s: error: %@", __func__, error.localizedDescription);
        return @"{}";
     } else {
        return [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
     } 
 }
@end

.

@interface NSArray (BVJSONString)
- (NSString *)bv_jsonStringWithPrettyPrint:(BOOL)prettyPrint;
@end

.

@implementation NSArray (BVJSONString)
-(NSString*) bv_jsonStringWithPrettyPrint:(BOOL) prettyPrint {
    NSError *error;
    NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:self
                                                       options:(NSJSONWritingOptions) (prettyPrint ? NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted : 0)
                                                         error:&error];

    if (! jsonData) {
        NSLog(@"%s: error: %@", __func__, error.localizedDescription);
        return @"[]";
    } else {
        return [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
    }
}
@end

将NSDictionary转换为NSString:

NSError * err;
NSData * jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:myDictionary options:0 error:&err]; 
NSString * myString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

苹果在iOS 5.0和Mac OS X 10.7中添加了JSON解析器和序列化器。看到NSJSONSerialization。

要从NSDictionary或NSArray中生成JSON字符串，你不再需要导入任何第三方框架。

以下是如何做到这一点:

NSError *error; 
NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:dictionaryOrArrayToOutput 
                                                   options:NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted // Pass 0 if you don't care about the readability of the generated string
                                                     error:&error];

if (! jsonData) {
    NSLog(@"Got an error: %@", error);
} else {
    NSString *jsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
}

public func jsonPrint(_ o: NSObject, spacing: String = "", after: String = "", before: String = "") {
    let newSpacing = spacing + "    "
    if o.isArray() {
        print(before + "[")
        if let a = o as? Array<NSObject> {
            for object in a {
                jsonPrint(object, spacing: newSpacing, after: object == a.last! ? "" : ",", before: newSpacing)
            }
        }
        print(spacing + "]" + after)
    } else {
        if o.isDictionary() {
            print(before + "{")
            if let a = o as? Dictionary<NSObject, NSObject> {
                for (key, val) in a {
                    jsonPrint(val, spacing: newSpacing, after: ",", before: newSpacing + key.description + " = ")
                }
            }
            print(spacing + "}" + after)
        } else {
            print(before + o.description + after)
        }
    }
}

这个非常接近最初的Objective-C打印风格

注:这个答案是在iOS 5发布之前给出的。

获取json-framework并执行以下操作:

#import "SBJsonWriter.h"

...

SBJsonWriter *jsonWriter = [[SBJsonWriter alloc] init];

NSString *jsonString = [jsonWriter stringWithObject:myDictionary];  

[jsonWriter release];

myDictionary就是你的字典。

在Swift 2.0版本中:

class func jsonStringWithJSONObject(jsonObject: AnyObject) throws -> String? {
    let data: NSData? = try? NSJSONSerialization.dataWithJSONObject(jsonObject, options: NSJSONWritingOptions.PrettyPrinted)

    var jsonStr: String?
    if data != nil {
        jsonStr = String(data: data!, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
    }

    return jsonStr
}
