Xcode 11 • Swift 5.1

The mutating method of StringProtocol replacingOccurrences can be implemented as follow:

extension RangeReplaceableCollection where Self: StringProtocol {
    mutating func replaceOccurrences(of target: Target, with replacement: Replacement, options: String.CompareOptions = [], range searchRange: Range? = nil) {
        self = .init(replacingOccurrences(of: target, with: replacement, options: options, range: searchRange))
    }
}

var name = "This is my string"
name.replaceOccurrences(of: " ", with: "+")
print(name) // "This+is+my+string\n"
