Yes, they are orthogonal, that's why a compiler and runtime can handle them together. From the user's point of view, Objective C just C with independent syntax from C++ for objects, methods and interfaces. And C++ is mostly a superset of C. From the operating system's point of view, Objective C reduces down to a C ABI, and it puts most of what it does in the runtime. C++ extends the C ABI. Again no conflict..I would be very surprised if this were true. Objective C and C++ have completely different underlying runtime paradigms. One could fairly say that they're orthogonal to each other.
