We are currently trying to chose between C++ and Objective-C as the implementation language for an object based design expressed in Flavours/Poplog. If anyone has got any actual experience which would bias them towards one of these languages, I would be most grateful to hear from them. Thanks in advance.

A couple of years ago when I was comparing the two, I choose C++ over Objective-C because the latter had a significant execution-time overhead to support dynamic object binding and a syntax that less resembled standard C. It was easier to think of C++ being a dialect of C that could now contain function declaration or defintions as structure elements. You should check to see if my first point is still valid.
