Getting device orientation in Swift

Question

I was wondering how I can get the current device orientation in Swift? I know there are examples for Objective-C, however I haven\'t been able to get it working in Swift.

Answer 1

I found that the alternative code in Swift for the Obj-C code

if (UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape([UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation)) 

is

if UIApplication.shared.statusBarOrientation.isLandscape

Note: we are trying to find the status bar orientation is landscape or not. If it is landscape then the if statement is true.
