Is it possible to determine whether ViewController is presented as Modal?

Question

Is it possible to check inside ViewController class that it is presented as modal view controller?

Answer 1

A hack like this might work.

UIViewController* child = self;
UIViewController* parent = child.parentViewController;
while (parent && parent.modalViewController != child) {
    child = parent;
    parent = child.parentViewController;
}
if (parent) {
    // A view controller in the hierarchy was presented as a modal view controller
}

However, I think my previous answer is a cleaner solution.
