如果有人感兴趣，我创建了一个Swift 3版本的@agilityvision答案。代码:

import Foundation
import UIKit

extension UIAlertController {

    var window: UIWindow? {
        get {
            return objc_getAssociatedObject(self, "window") as? UIWindow
        }
        set {
            objc_setAssociatedObject(self, "window", newValue, objc_AssociationPolicy.OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC)
        }
    }

    open override func viewDidDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
        super.viewDidDisappear(animated)
        self.window?.isHidden = true
        self.window = nil
    }

    func show(animated: Bool = true) {
        let window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
        window.rootViewController = UIViewController(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)

        let delegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate
        if delegate?.window != nil {
            window.tintColor = delegate!.window!!.tintColor
        }

        window.windowLevel = UIApplication.shared.windows.last!.windowLevel + 1

        window.makeKeyAndVisible()
        window.rootViewController!.present(self, animated: animated, completion: nil)

        self.window = window
    }
}

对于UINavigationController和/或UITabBarController的所有情况，非常通用的UIAlertController扩展。如果屏幕上有一个模态VC，也可以工作。

用法:

//option 1:
myAlertController.show()
//option 2:
myAlertController.present(animated: true) {
    //completion code...
}

这是扩展:

//Uses Swift1.2 syntax with the new if-let
// so it won't compile on a lower version.
extension UIAlertController {

    func show() {
        present(animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

    func present(#animated: Bool, completion: (() -> Void)?) {
        if let rootVC = UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow?.rootViewController {
            presentFromController(rootVC, animated: animated, completion: completion)
        }
    }

    private func presentFromController(controller: UIViewController, animated: Bool, completion: (() -> Void)?) {
        if  let navVC = controller as? UINavigationController,
            let visibleVC = navVC.visibleViewController {
                presentFromController(visibleVC, animated: animated, completion: completion)
        } else {
          if  let tabVC = controller as? UITabBarController,
              let selectedVC = tabVC.selectedViewController {
                presentFromController(selectedVC, animated: animated, completion: completion)
          } else {
              controller.presentViewController(self, animated: animated, completion: completion)
          }
        }
    }
}

@agilityvision的答案翻译为Swift4/iOS11。我没有使用本地化字符串，但你可以很容易地改变:

import UIKit

/** An alert controller that can be called without a view controller.
 Creates a blank view controller and presents itself over that
 **/
class AlertPlusViewController: UIAlertController {

    private var alertWindow: UIWindow?

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }

    override func viewDidDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
        super.viewDidDisappear(animated)
        self.alertWindow?.isHidden = true
        alertWindow = nil
    }

    func show() {
        self.showAnimated(animated: true)
    }

    func showAnimated(animated _: Bool) {

        let blankViewController = UIViewController()
        blankViewController.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear

        let window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
        window.rootViewController = blankViewController
        window.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
        window.windowLevel = UIWindowLevelAlert + 1
        window.makeKeyAndVisible()
        self.alertWindow = window

        blankViewController.present(self, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

    func presentOkayAlertWithTitle(title: String?, message: String?) {

        let alertController = AlertPlusViewController(title: title, message: message, preferredStyle: .alert)
        let okayAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default, handler: nil)
        alertController.addAction(okayAction)
        alertController.show()
    }

    func presentOkayAlertWithError(error: NSError?) {
        let title = "Error"
        let message = error?.localizedDescription
        presentOkayAlertWithTitle(title: title, message: message)
    }
}

在Swift 3中

let alertLogin = UIAlertController.init(title: "Your Title", message:"Your message", preferredStyle: .alert)
                                    alertLogin.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Done", style:.default, handler: { (AlertAction) in

                                    }))
                                    self.window?.rootViewController?.present(alertLogin, animated: true, completion: nil)

下面的解决方案没有发挥作用，尽管它在所有版本中看起来都很有前途。这个解决方案正在生成WARNING。

警告:试图显示不在窗口层次结构中的视图!

https://stackoverflow.com/a/34487871/2369867 = > 这在当时看起来很有希望。但在Swift 3中没有。 所以我在Swift 3中回答这个问题，这不是模板示例。

一旦粘贴到任何函数中，这是相当完整的功能代码。

快速Swift 3自包含代码

let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "<your title>", message: "<your message>", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.alert)
alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Close", style: UIAlertActionStyle.cancel, handler: nil))

let alertWindow = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
alertWindow.rootViewController = UIViewController()
alertWindow.windowLevel = UIWindowLevelAlert + 1;
alertWindow.makeKeyAndVisible()
alertWindow.rootViewController?.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)

这是在Swift 3中测试和工作的代码。

Kevin Sliech提供了一个很好的解决方案。

我现在在我的主UIViewController子类中使用下面的代码。

我做的一个小改动是检查最好的表示控制器是不是一个普通的UIViewController。如果不是，那就一定是某个VC表示一个普通VC。因此，我们返回正在呈现的VC。

- (UIViewController *)bestPresentationController
{
    UIViewController *bestPresentationController = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController;

    if (![bestPresentationController isMemberOfClass:[UIViewController class]])
    {
        bestPresentationController = bestPresentationController.presentedViewController;
    }    

    return bestPresentationController;
}

在我的测试中似乎一切正常。

谢谢你，凯文!
