Summary:

Try [myObject class] for returning the class of an object.

You can make exact comparisons with:

if ([myObject class] == [MyClass class])

but not by using directly MyClass identifier.

Similarily, you can find if the object is of a subclass of your class with:

if ([myObject isKindOfClass:[AnObject class]])

as suggested by Jon Skeet and zoul.
