试试这个:

NSDate * timestamp = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970]];

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS"];

NSString *newDateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:timestamp];
timestamp = (NSDate*)newDateString;

在本例中，dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970与格式化程序@"YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss结合使用。它将返回带有年、月、日的日期和带有小时、分钟、秒和毫秒的时间。参见示例:"2015-12-02 04:43:15.008"。我使用NSString来确保格式之前已经写过。

[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970];

它以双精度返回自epoch以来的秒数。我几乎可以肯定你可以从小数部分访问毫秒。

到目前为止，我发现gettimeofday在iOS (iPad)上是一个很好的解决方案，当你想执行一些间隔评估(比如帧速率，渲染帧的计时……):

#include <sys/time.h>
struct timeval time;
gettimeofday(&time, NULL);
long millis = (time.tv_sec * 1000) + (time.tv_usec / 1000);

CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent ()

Absolute time is measured in seconds relative to the absolute reference date of Jan 1 2001 00:00:00 GMT. A positive value represents a date after the reference date, a negative value represents a date before it. For example, the absolute time -32940326 is equivalent to December 16th, 1999 at 17:54:34. Repeated calls to this function do not guarantee monotonically increasing results. The system time may decrease due to synchronization with external time references or due to an explicit user change of the clock.

我需要一个NSNumber对象，包含[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970]的确切结果。因为这个函数被调用了很多次，我并不真的需要创建一个NSDate对象，性能不是很好。

所以要得到原始函数给我的格式，试试这个:

#include <sys/time.h>
struct timeval tv;
gettimeofday(&tv,NULL);
double perciseTimeStamp = tv.tv_sec + tv.tv_usec * 0.000001;

这应该给你完全相同的结果[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970]

这基本上和@TristanLorach发布的答案是一样的，只是为Swift 3重新编码:

   /// Method to get Unix-style time (Java variant), i.e., time since 1970 in milliseconds. This 
   /// copied from here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/24655601/253938 and here:

   /// (This should give good performance according to this: 
   ///  http://stackoverflow.com/a/12020300/253938 )
   ///
   /// Note that it is possible that multiple calls to this method and computing the difference may 
   /// occasionally give problematic results, like an apparently negative interval or a major jump 
   /// forward in time. This is because system time occasionally gets updated due to synchronization 
   /// with a time source on the network (maybe "leap second"), or user setting the clock.
   public static func currentTimeMillis() -> Int64 {
      var darwinTime : timeval = timeval(tv_sec: 0, tv_usec: 0)
      gettimeofday(&darwinTime, nil)
      return (Int64(darwinTime.tv_sec) * 1000) + Int64(darwinTime.tv_usec / 1000)
   }
