[edit] C++

Tuxedo (software) http://www.bea.com/tuxedo Based on the ATMI standard, is one of the original application servers. Tuxedo provides extraordinarily high performance compared to Java-based application servers due to is native architecture implementation and cluster-based high scalability.

[edit] Objective-C

GNUstepWeb [1]WebObjects 4.5 compatible, released under the LGPL.
SOPE [2] inspired by WebObjects extended with Zope concepts, used as Foundation for OpenGroupware.
