As I understand it, Objective-C++ allows you to mix ObjC and C++ code
together, the same way you can currently mix ObjC and C. It will not
permit the use of C++ objects as ObjC objects or vice versa but it
simplify exchanges between the two types of objects. So I don't think
that C++ will ever be a language of choice for Cocoa.
