在我的例子中，viewWillDisappear效果最好。但在某些情况下，必须修改之前的视图控制器。所以这是我的解决方案访问之前的视图控制器，它在Swift 4中工作:

override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillDisappear(animated)
        if isMovingFromParentViewController {
            if let viewControllers = self.navigationController?.viewControllers {
                if (viewControllers.count >= 1) {
                    let previousViewController = viewControllers[viewControllers.count-1] as! NameOfDestinationViewController
                    // whatever you want to do
                    previousViewController.callOrModifySomething()
                }
            }
        }
    }

斯威夫特3:

override func didMove(toParentViewController parent: UIViewController?) {
    super.didMove(toParentViewController: parent)

    if parent == nil{
        print("Back button was clicked")
    }
}

我通过以下方法做到了这一点:

斯威夫特3

override func didMoveToParentViewController(parent: UIViewController?) {
   super.didMoveToParentViewController(parent)

   if parent == nil {
      println("Back Button pressed.")
      delegate?.goingBack()
   }           
}

斯威夫特4

override func didMove(toParent parent: UIViewController?) {
    super.didMove(toParent: parent)

    if parent == nil {
        debugPrint("Back Button pressed.")
    }
}

不需要自定义后退按钮。

    override public func viewDidLoad() {
         super.viewDidLoad()
         self.navigationController?.navigationBar.topItem?.title = GlobalVariables.selectedMainIconName
         let image = UIImage(named: "back-btn")

         image = image?.imageWithRenderingMode(UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysOriginal)

        self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: image, style: UIBarButtonItemStyle.Plain, target: self, action: #selector(Current[enter image description here][1]ViewController.back) )
    }

    func back() {
      self.navigationController?.popToViewController( self.navigationController!.viewControllers[ self.navigationController!.viewControllers.count - 2 ], animated: true)
    }

据我所知，你想清空你的数组，当你按下后退按钮，弹出到你之前的ViewController，让你的数组加载在这个屏幕上

let settingArray  = NSMutableArray()
@IBAction func Back(sender: AnyObject) {
    self. settingArray.removeAllObjects()
    self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
} 

只需control +拖动栏项到func下面。魅力工作

@IBAction func done(sender: AnyObject) {
    if((self.presentingViewController) != nil){
        self.dismiss(animated: false, completion: nil)
        print("done")
    }
}
