c# - How to find current UIViewController in Xamarin

Question

I am using the Facebook Auth SDK, with a Xamarin Forms C# example. However, the Facebook SDK has depreciated the method and replaced it with one which adds a fromViewController variable into the constructors. I am not particularly comfortable with the concept of ViewControllers in Xamarin, or indeed with this code as it is from a sample, so is there a way to gauge the current ViewController?

I have seen a few .net examples e.g. NSArray *viewContrlls=[[self navigationController] viewControllers];[viewContrlls lastObject]; However, this approach doesn't seem to work with Xamarin, as self doesn't contain definitions for navigationControllers.

Alternatively, is there any way of easily working out which variable my current ViewController is sotored in, using the sample code?

The accepted answer won′t give you the current view controller if it′s in the stack of a parent UINavigationController, so I came up with the following:

public static UIViewController GetTopViewController()
{
    var window = UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow;
    var vc = window.RootViewController;
    while (vc.PresentedViewController != null)
        vc = vc.PresentedViewController;

    if (vc is UINavigationController navController)
        vc = navController.ViewControllers.Last();

    return vc;
}
