If you don't want to use the Objective-C NSString methods, you can just use split and join:

var string = "This is my string"
string = join("+", split(string, isSeparator: { $0 == " " }))

split(string, isSeparator: { $0 == " " }) returns an array of strings (["This", "is", "my", "string"]).

join joins these elements with a +, resulting in the desired output: "This+is+my+string".
