Answer 1

xCode 9.3, Swift 4.0

class BaseVC: UIViewController, UIGestureRecognizerDelegate { 

      @IBOutlet weak var iView: UIView!

      override func viewDidLoad() {
          super.viewDidLoad()
          let clickUITapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(self.onSelect(_:)))
          clickUITapGestureRecognizer.delegate = self
          iView?.addGestureRecognizer(tap)
      }

      func gestureRecognizer(_ gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer, shouldReceive touch: UITouch) -> Bool {
          return true
      }


     @IBAction func onSelect(_ sender: Any) {

     }
}
