我的问题有点不同，我在我的应用程序中使用SWRevealViewController。 我使用了Yuchen Zhong的答案，但它总是返回topViewController作为SWRevealViewController。对于那些使用SWRevealViewController或其他一些pod来开发侧菜单的人。以下是我对钟宇晨回答的延伸:

extension UIApplication {
class func topViewController() -> UIViewController? {
    var topVC = shared.keyWindow!.rootViewController
    while true {
        if let presented = topVC?.presentedViewController {
            topVC = presented
        } else if let nav = topVC as? UINavigationController {
            topVC = nav.visibleViewController
        } else if let tab = topVC as? UITabBarController {
            topVC = tab.selectedViewController
        }else if let swRVC = topVC as? SWRevealViewController {
            topVC = swRVC.frontViewController
        } else {
            break
        }
    }
    return topVC
}
}

你可以通过使用找到最顶层视图控制器

NSArray *arrViewControllers=[[self navigationController] viewControllers];
UIViewController *topMostViewController=(UIViewController *)[arrViewControllers objectAtIndex:[arrViewControllers count]-1];

使用下面的扩展抓取当前可见的UIViewController。适用于Swift 4.0及更高版本

Swift 4.0及以上版本:

extension UIApplication {
    
    class func topViewController(_ viewController: UIViewController? = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController) -> UIViewController? {
        if let nav = viewController as? UINavigationController {
            return topViewController(nav.visibleViewController)
        }
        if let tab = viewController as? UITabBarController {
            if let selected = tab.selectedViewController {
                return topViewController(selected)
            }
        }
        if let presented = viewController?.presentedViewController {
            return topViewController(presented)
        }
        return viewController
    }
}

如何使用?

let objViewcontroller = UIApplication.topViewController()

另一个解决方案依赖于responder链，它可能工作，也可能不工作，这取决于第一个responder是什么:

获取第一个响应器。 获取与第一个responder相关联的UIViewController。

示例伪代码:

+ (UIViewController *)currentViewController {
    UIView *firstResponder = [self firstResponder]; // from the first link above, but not guaranteed to return a UIView, so this should be handled more appropriately.
    UIViewController *viewController = [firstResponder viewController]; // from the second link above
    return viewController;
}

下面两个函数可以帮助在视图控制器堆栈中找到topViewController。以后可能需要自定义，但是对于这段代码来说，理解topViewController或viewcontroller堆栈的概念非常棒。

- (UIViewController*)findTopViewController {

  id  topControler  = [self topMostController];

  UIViewController* topViewController;
  if([topControler isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
        topViewController = [[(UINavigationController*)topControler viewControllers] lastObject];
   } else if ([topControler isKindOfClass:[UITabBarController class]]) {
        //Here you can get reference of top viewcontroller from stack of viewcontrollers on UITabBarController
  } else {
        //topController is a preented viewController
        topViewController = (UIViewController*)topControler;
  }
    //NSLog(@"Top ViewController is: %@",NSStringFromClass([topController class]));
    return topViewController;
}

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

    while (topController.presentedViewController) {
        topController = topController.presentedViewController;
    }
    //NSLog(@"Top View is: %@",NSStringFromClass([topController class]));
    return topController;
}

你可以使用[viewController Class]方法找出一个viewController的类的类型。

为了避免很多复杂性，我通过在委托中创建一个viewController来跟踪当前的viewController，并在每个viewDidLoad方法中设置它为self，这样每当你加载一个新视图时，委托中持有的viewController将对应于该视图的viewController。这可能是丑陋的，但它工作得很好，没有必要有一个导航控制器或任何废话。
