从Swift 4.0开始，可以使用多行字符串，但有一些规则:

你需要用三个双引号"""来开始和结束字符串。 你的字符串内容应该从它自己的行开始。 结尾的"""也应该在自己的行上开始。

除此之外，你就可以开始了!这里有一个例子:

let longString = """
When you write a string that spans multiple
lines make sure you start its content on a
line all of its own, and end it with three
quotes also on a line of their own.
Multi-line strings also let you write "quote marks"
freely inside your strings, which is great!
"""

我在String上使用了一个扩展来实现多行字符串，同时避免编译器挂起的错误。它还允许您指定分隔符，以便您可以像使用Python的join函数一样使用它

extension String {
    init(sep:String, _ lines:String...){
        self = ""
        for (idx, item) in lines.enumerated() {
            self += "\(item)"
            if idx < lines.count-1 {
                self += sep
            }
        }
    }

    init(_ lines:String...){
        self = ""
        for (idx, item) in lines.enumerated() {
            self += "\(item)"
            if idx < lines.count-1 {
                self += "\n"
            }
        }
    }
}



print(
    String(
        "Hello",
        "World!"
    )
)
"Hello
World!"

print(
    String(sep:", ",
        "Hello",
        "World!"
    )
)
"Hello, World!"

另一种方法是，如果你想使用带有预定义文本的字符串变量，

var textFieldData:String = "John"
myTextField.text = NSString(format: "Hello User, \n %@",textFieldData) as String
myTextField.numberOfLines = 0

下面是一个代码片段，用n个字符分隔字符串:

//: A UIKit based Playground for presenting user interface

import UIKit
import PlaygroundSupport

class MyViewController : UIViewController {
    override func loadView() {

        let str = String(charsPerLine: 5, "Hello World!")
        print(str) // "Hello\n Worl\nd!\n"

    }
}

extension String {

    init(charsPerLine:Int, _ str:String){

        self = ""
        var idx = 0
        for char in str {
            self += "\(char)"
            idx = idx + 1
            if idx == charsPerLine {
                self += "\n"
                idx = 0
            }
        }

    }
}

正如litso所指出的，在一个表达式中重复使用+-操作符会导致Xcode Beta挂起(刚刚用Xcode 6 Beta 5检查过):Xcode 6 Beta无法编译

目前，多行字符串的另一种替代方法是使用一个字符串数组，并将其压缩为+:

var text = ["This is some text ",
            "over multiple lines"].reduce("", +)

或者，可以更简单地使用join:

var text = "".join(["This is some text ",
                    "over multiple lines"])

我写了一个小扩展。

extension String {

    init(swiftLintMultiline strings: String...) {
        self = strings.reduce("", +)
    }
}

你可以这样使用它:

String(swiftLintMultiline:
    "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing",
    "elit. Ut vulputate ultrices volutpat. Vivamus eget",
    "nunc maximus, tempus neque vel, suscipit velit.",
    "Quisque quam quam, malesuada et accumsan sodales,",
    "rutrum non odio. Praesent a est porta, hendrerit",
    "lectus scelerisque, pharetra magna. Proin id nulla",
    "pharetra, lobortis ipsum sit amet, vehicula elit. Nulla",
    "dapibus ipsum ipsum, sit amet congue arcu efficitur ac. Nunc imperdi"
)
