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。

使用扩展为Swift获得最顶部的视图控制器

代码:

extension UIViewController {
    @objc func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController {
        // Handling Modal views
        if let presentedViewController = self.presentedViewController {
            return presentedViewController.topMostViewController()
        }
        // Handling UIViewController's added as subviews to some other views.
        else {
            for view in self.view.subviews
            {
                // Key property which most of us are unaware of / rarely use.
                if let subViewController = view.next {
                    if subViewController is UIViewController {
                        let viewController = subViewController as! UIViewController
                        return viewController.topMostViewController()
                    }
                }
            }
            return self
        }
    }
}

extension UITabBarController {
    override func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController {
        return self.selectedViewController!.topMostViewController()
    }
}

extension UINavigationController {
    override func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController {
        return self.visibleViewController!.topMostViewController()
    }
}

用法:

UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow!.rootViewController!.topMostViewController()

一个完整的非递归版本，照顾到不同的场景:

视图控制器正在呈现另一个视图 视图控制器是一个UINavigationController 视图控制器是一个UITabBarController

objective - c

 UIViewController *topViewController = self.window.rootViewController;
 while (true)
 {
     if (topViewController.presentedViewController) {
         topViewController = topViewController.presentedViewController;
     } else if ([topViewController isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
         UINavigationController *nav = (UINavigationController *)topViewController;
         topViewController = nav.topViewController;
     } else if ([topViewController isKindOfClass:[UITabBarController class]]) {
         UITabBarController *tab = (UITabBarController *)topViewController;
         topViewController = tab.selectedViewController;
     } else {
         break;
     }
 }

斯威夫特 4+

extension UIWindow {
    func topViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        var top = self.rootViewController
        while true {
            if let presented = top?.presentedViewController {
                top = presented
            } else if let nav = top as? UINavigationController {
                top = nav.visibleViewController
            } else if let tab = top as? UITabBarController {
                top = tab.selectedViewController
            } else {
                break
            }
        }
        return top
    }
}

为了完成Eric的回答(谁省略了弹出窗口，导航控制器，选项卡控制器，视图控制器添加为子视图到一些其他的视图控制器遍历)，这是我的版本返回当前可见的视图控制器:

=====================================================================

- (UIViewController*)topViewController {
    return [self topViewControllerWithRootViewController:[UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController];
}

- (UIViewController*)topViewControllerWithRootViewController:(UIViewController*)viewController {
    if ([viewController isKindOfClass:[UITabBarController class]]) {
        UITabBarController* tabBarController = (UITabBarController*)viewController;
        return [self topViewControllerWithRootViewController:tabBarController.selectedViewController];
    } else if ([viewController isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
        UINavigationController* navContObj = (UINavigationController*)viewController;
        return [self topViewControllerWithRootViewController:navContObj.visibleViewController];
    } else if (viewController.presentedViewController && !viewController.presentedViewController.isBeingDismissed) {
        UIViewController* presentedViewController = viewController.presentedViewController;
        return [self topViewControllerWithRootViewController:presentedViewController];
    }
    else {
        for (UIView *view in [viewController.view subviews])
        {
            id subViewController = [view nextResponder];
            if ( subViewController && [subViewController isKindOfClass:[UIViewController class]])
            {
                if ([(UIViewController *)subViewController presentedViewController]  && ![subViewController presentedViewController].isBeingDismissed) {
                    return [self topViewControllerWithRootViewController:[(UIViewController *)subViewController presentedViewController]];
                }
            }
        }
        return viewController;
    }
}

=====================================================================

现在你需要做的就是像下面这样调用上面的方法:

UIViewController *topMostViewControllerObj = [self topViewController];

我最近在我的一个项目中遇到了这种情况，当网络状态发生变化时，需要显示一个通知视图，无论显示的控制器是什么，无论类型是什么(UINavigationController，经典控制器或自定义视图控制器)。

所以我刚刚发布了我的代码，这很简单，实际上是基于一个协议，所以它对每种类型的容器控制器都是灵活的。 它似乎与上一个答案有关，但方式更加灵活。

你可以从这里获取代码:PPTopMostController

并得到最顶级的控制器使用

UIViewController *c = [UIViewController topMostController];

扩展@Eric的回答，你需要小心，keyWindow实际上是你想要的窗口。例如，如果您试图在点击警报视图中的某些内容后使用此方法，keyWindow实际上将是警报的窗口，这无疑会给您带来问题。这发生在我在野外通过警报处理深度链接时，并导致SIGABRTs没有堆栈跟踪。要调试的婊子。

下面是我现在使用的代码:

- (UIViewController *)getTopMostViewController {
    UIWindow *topWindow = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow;
    if (topWindow.windowLevel != UIWindowLevelNormal) {
        NSArray *windows = [UIApplication sharedApplication].windows;
        for(topWindow in windows)
        {
            if (topWindow.windowLevel == UIWindowLevelNormal)
                break;
        }
    }

    UIViewController *topViewController = topWindow.rootViewController;

    while (topViewController.presentedViewController) {
        topViewController = topViewController.presentedViewController;
    }

    return topViewController;
}

你可以把这个和你喜欢的从这个问题的其他答案中检索顶视图控制器的方法混合在一起。
