一、UIWindow介绍
[1]、UIWindow是一种特殊的UIView（视图集合中的根view），每个UIWindow都有一个窗口等级（windowlevel）,通常在一个程序中只会有一个UIWindow，可以手动创建多个UIWindow。UIWindow在程序中主要起到三个作用：
1、作为容器，包含app显示的所有视图
2、传递触摸消息到程序中view和其他对象
3、与UIViewController协同工作，方便完成设备方向旋转的支持
[2]、通常我们可以采取两种方法将view添加到UIWindow中：
1、addSubview
直接将view通过addSubview方式添加到window中，程序负责维护view的生命周期以及刷新，但是并不会为去理会view对应的ViewController，因此采用这种方法将view添加到window以后，我们还要保持view对应的ViewController的有效性，不能过早释放。
2、rootViewController
rootViewController是UIWindow的一个遍历方法，通过设置该属性为要添加view对应的ViewController，UIWindow将会自动将其view添加到当前window中，同时负责ViewController和view的生命周期的维护，防止其过早释放。
3、keyWindow ： BOOL 类型，只读，用于判断是否是当前应用的 key window (key window 是指可接收到键盘输入及其他非触摸事件的 UIWindow，一次只能有一个 key window)
4、windowLevel ：UIWindowLevel 类型，多个 UIWindow 的显示顺序是按照 windowLevel 从高到低排列的，windowLevel 最高的显示在最前面。比如：windowLevel 较高的 UIAlertView 警告窗口会显示在一般窗口的前面。UIWindowLevel 类型的定义如下：
typedef CGFloat UIWindowLevel;
UIKIT_EXTERN const UIWindowLevel UIWindowLevelNormal; //默认等级
UIKIT_EXTERN const UIWindowLevel UIWindowLevelAlert; //UIAlert等级
UIKIT_EXTERN const UIWindowLevel UIWindowLevelStatsBar; //状态栏等级
打印结果如下：
NSLog(@"%f", UIWindowLevelNormal);
NSLog(@"%f", UIWindowLevelAlert);
NSLog(@"%f", UIWindowLevelStatusBar);

5、makeKeyWindow ：将当前 UIWindow 设置成应用的 key window。
6、makeKeyAndVisible ：将当前 UIWindow 设置成应用的 key window，并使得 UIWindow 可见；也可以使用 UIView 的 hidden 属性来显示或者隐藏一个 UIWindow。
1、- (void)becomeKeyWindow; // override point for subclass. Do not call directly 调用窗口，使之变成关键窗口
2、- (void)resignKeyWindow; // override point for subclass. Do not call directly 调用窗口，使之取消关键窗口
3、- (void)makeKeyWindow; 使之成为主窗口
4、- (void)makeKeyAndVisible; // convenience. most apps call this to show the main window and also make it key. otherwise use view hidden property 使之成为主窗口，并且显示
5、- (void)sendEvent:(UIEvent *)event; // called by UIApplication to dispatch events to views inside the window 事件拦截分发到指定视图对象
当用户发起一个事件，比如触摸屏幕或者晃动设备，系统产生一个事件，同时投递给UIApplication，而UIApplication则将这个事件传递给特定的UIWindow进行处理(正常情况都一个程序都只有一个UIWindow)，然后由UIWindow将这个事件传递给特定的对象(即first responder)并通过响应链进行处理。虽然都是通过响应链对事件进行处理，但是触摸事件和运动事件在处理上有着明显的不同(主要体现在确定哪个对象才是他们的first responder)：
窗口坐标系统转化
6、- (CGPoint)convertPoint:(CGPoint)point toWindow:(UIWindow *)window; // can be used to convert to another window 转化当前窗口一个坐标相对另外一个窗口的坐标
7、- (CGPoint)convertPoint:(CGPoint)point fromWindow:(UIWindow *)window; // pass in nil to mean screen 转化另外窗口一个坐标相对于当前窗口的坐标
8、- (CGRect)convertRect:(CGRect)rect toWindow:(UIWindow *)window; 转化当前窗口一个矩形坐标相对另外一个窗口的坐标
9、- (CGRect)convertRect:(CGRect)rect fromWindow:(UIWindow *)window; 转化另外窗口一个矩形坐标相对于当前窗口的坐标
