The features of C++ that Think C lacks are exactly the same features that Object Pascal lacks: multiple inheritance, non-virtual functions, private and protected members, operator and function overloading, etc.  Think C is exactly as 'object oriented' as Think Pascal and in fact both can use the same basic object oriented framework, the Think Class Library.  The primary difference in this regard is that Think C cannot use MacApp and Think Pascal can.
