我建议使用NSString来处理你想要操作的字符串。实际上，作为一个开发人员，我从来没有遇到过NSString的问题，Swift String可以解决…我明白其中的微妙之处。但我还没有真正需要它们。

var foo = someSwiftString as NSString

or

var foo = "Foo" as NSString

or

var foo: NSString = "blah"

然后整个简单NSString字符串操作的世界就向你敞开了。

作为问题的答案

// check bounds before you do this, e.g. foo.length > 0
// Note shortFoo is of type NSString
var shortFoo = foo.substringToIndex(foo.length-1)

import UIKit

var str1 = "Hello, playground"
str1.removeLast()
print(str1)

var str2 = "Hello, playground"
str2.removeLast(3)
print(str2)

var str3 = "Hello, playground"
str3.removeFirst(2)
print(str3)

Output:-
Hello, playgroun
Hello, playgro
llo, playground

使用新的Substring类型用法:

斯威夫特4:

var before: String = "Hello world!"
var lastCharIndex: Int = before.endIndex
var after:String = String(before[..<lastCharIndex])
print(after) // Hello world

短:

var before: String = "Hello world!"
after = String(before[..<before.endIndex])
print(after) // Hello world

一个快速变化的类别:

extension String {
    mutating func removeCharsFromEnd(removeCount:Int)
    {
        let stringLength = count(self)
        let substringIndex = max(0, stringLength - removeCount)
        self = self.substringToIndex(advance(self.startIndex, substringIndex))
    }
}

使用:

var myString = "abcd"
myString.removeCharsFromEnd(2)
println(myString) // "ab"

简单回答(2015-04-16有效):removeAtIndex(mystring . endindex .前任())

例子:

var howToBeHappy = "Practice compassion, attention and gratitude. And smile!!"
howToBeHappy.removeAtIndex(howToBeHappy.endIndex.predecessor())
println(howToBeHappy)
// "Practice compassion, attention and gratitude. And smile!"

语言继续着它的快速进化，使得许多以前很好的sos答案的半衰期变得危险地短暂。学习语言并参考真正的文档总是最好的。

我还删除了我的最后一个字符从字符串(即UILabel文本)在IOS应用程序

@IBOutlet weak var labelText: UILabel! // Do Connection with UILabel

@IBAction func whenXButtonPress(_ sender: UIButton) { // Do Connection With X Button

    labelText.text = String((labelText.text?.dropLast())!) // Delete the last caracter and assign it

}
