Taken from wikipedia:

Objective-C does not support operator overloading.Objective-C allows an object only to directly inherit from one class (forbidding multiple inheritance).


The design and implementation of C++ and Objective-C represent different approaches to extending C.

C++ provides templates to support generic programming and metaprogramming, and a standard library with container classes. C++ requires this because C++ is a statically-typed language. Objective-C adds only object oriented features — Objective-C does not need to have template programming because it supports dynamic typing. Objective-C in its purest fashion does not contain the same number of standard library features, however in most places where Objective-C is used, it is used with an OpenStep-like library such as OPENSTEP, Cocoa, or GNUstep, providing the same functionality as C++'s standard library.

At run time, most information about types in C++ is gone, and there is no standard way to, for instance, call a certain method given only its name. In contrast, as Objective-C is dynamically typed, type information remains directly available at run time. For instance, one can call an Objective-C method given only a string representing its name.
