修改现有可变字符串的类别:

extension String
{
    mutating func replace(originalString:String, withString newString:String)
    {
        let replacedString = self.stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString(originalString, withString: newString, options: nil, range: nil)
        self = replacedString
    }
}

使用:

name.replace(" ", withString: "+")

修改现有可变字符串的类别:

extension String
{
    mutating func replace(originalString:String, withString newString:String)
    {
        let replacedString = self.stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString(originalString, withString: newString, options: nil, range: nil)
        self = replacedString
    }
}

使用:

name.replace(" ", withString: "+")

基于Ramis回答的Swift 3解决方案:

extension String {
    func withReplacedCharacters(_ characters: String, by separator: String) -> String {
        let characterSet = CharacterSet(charactersIn: characters)
        return components(separatedBy: characterSet).joined(separator: separator)
    }
}

尝试根据Swift 3的命名约定，提出一个合适的函数名。

var str = "This is my string"
str = str.replacingOccurrences(of: " ", with: "+")
print(str)

你可以用这个:

let s = "This is my string"
let modified = s.replace(" ", withString:"+")    

如果你在你的代码中添加这个扩展方法:

extension String
{
    func replace(target: String, withString: String) -> String
    {
       return self.stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString(target, withString: withString, options: NSStringCompareOptions.LiteralSearch, range: nil)
    }
}

斯威夫特3:

extension String
{
    func replace(target: String, withString: String) -> String
    {
        return self.replacingOccurrences(of: target, with: withString, options: NSString.CompareOptions.literal, range: nil)
    }
}

斯威夫特4:

let abc = "Hello world"

let result = abc.replacingOccurrences(of: " ", with: "_", 
    options: NSString.CompareOptions.literal, range:nil)

print(result :\(result))

输出:

result : Hello_world
