Where is my string.replaceAll in Swift?

So prior to getting into Swift, I spent most of my time coding in either Java or Javascript, and there is one Java method that I need to use from time to time at work and that is String.replaceAll. So naturally when I started coding in Swift, one of the things that I was thought about was, does Swift have a String.replaceAll method? Well Swift does have a replaceAll method, its just called something else i.e. String.stringByReplacingOccurencesOfString. So the name is fairly logical and does make sense, its just that my brain was wired to replaceAll, prior to coming across this method.
