这是Swift 4的版本

extension NSDictionary{

func toString() throws -> String? {
    do {
        let data = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: self, options: .prettyPrinted)
        return String(data: data, encoding: .utf8)
    }
    catch (let error){
        throw error
    }
}

}

使用的例子

do{
    let jsonString = try dic.toString()
    }
    catch( let error){
        print(error.localizedDescription)
    }

或者如果你确定它是有效的字典，那么你可以使用

let jsonString = try? dic.toString()

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];

从ISO7开始，至少你可以用NSJSONSerialization轻松做到这一点。

NSMutableDictionary *contentDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
        [contentDictionary setValue:@"a" forKey:@"b"];
        [contentDictionary setValue:@"c" forKey:@"d"];
        NSData *data = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:contentDictionary options:NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted error:nil];
        NSString *jsonStr = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data
                                                  encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

这将在swift4和swift5中工作。

let dataDict = "the dictionary you want to convert in jsonString" 

let jsonData = try! JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: dataDict, options: JSONSerialization.WritingOptions.prettyPrinted)

let jsonString = NSString(data: jsonData, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue)! as String

print(jsonString)

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
}
