如果你想检查一个特定的类型，你可以做以下事情:

if let stringArray = obj as? [String] {
    // obj is a string array. Do something with stringArray
}
else {
    // obj is not a string array
}

你可以使用"as!"，如果obj不是[String]类型，就会抛出一个运行时错误。

let stringArray = obj as! [String]

你也可以一次检查一个元素:

let items : [Any] = ["Hello", "World"]
for obj in items {
   if let str = obj as? String {
      // obj is a String. Do something with str
   }
   else {
      // obj is not a String
   }
}

如果你有这样的响应:

{
  "registeration_method": "email",
  "is_stucked": true,
  "individual": {
    "id": 24099,
    "first_name": "ahmad",
    "last_name": "zozoz",
    "email": null,
    "mobile_number": null,
    "confirmed": false,
    "avatar": "http://abc-abc-xyz.amazonaws.com/images/placeholder-profile.png",
    "doctor_request_status": 0
  },
  "max_number_of_confirmation_trials": 4,
  "max_number_of_invalid_confirmation_trials": 12
}

你想检查值is_stuck将被读取为AnyObject，你所要做的就是这个

if let isStucked = response["is_stucked"] as? Bool{
  if isStucked{
      print("is Stucked")
  }
  else{
      print("Not Stucked")
 }
}

let originalArray : [Any?] = ["Hello", "World", 111, 2, nil, 3.34]
let strings = originalArray.compactMap({ $0 as? String })

print(strings)
//printed: ["Hello", "World"]

斯威夫特3:

class Shape {}
class Circle : Shape {}
class Rectangle : Shape {}

if aShape.isKind(of: Circle.self) {
}

如果你只是想检查类而不得到警告，因为未使用的定义值(let somvariable…)，你可以简单地用一个布尔值替换let:

if (yourObject as? ClassToCompareWith) != nil {
   // do what you have to do
}
else {
   // do something else
}

Xcode在我使用let方法而没有使用定义值时提出了这个建议。

为什么不用这样的东西呢

fileprivate enum types {
    case typeString
    case typeInt
    case typeDouble
    case typeUnknown
}

fileprivate func typeOfAny(variable: Any) -> types {
    if variable is String {return types.typeString}
    if variable is Int {return types.typeInt}
    if variable is Double {return types.typeDouble}
    return types.typeUnknown
}

在Swift 3中。
