Interview styles vary enormously but in my experience the language specific bits of an interview will only take up 10-20% of the interview. The bulk of the interview time would be spent trying to understand how you approach problem solving in general, how well you understand the dynamics of a project and team working, maybe a bit on management issues to see if you have long term potential. Language specifics range from showing buggy code and asking you to find the faults, asking you to suggest a design approach to a problem, maybe some specific questions about toolkits and known issues with the language. But you could wind up with something completely different depending on the organisations style and culture as well as the individual interviewer. One of my old bosses loved asking really off the ball questions like" what is the most enjoyable aspect of winter?" or "how well would you cope on a 3 month submarine trip?" and stuff like that. Another common technique is to "drill down" until they hit bottom. In other words just keep on asking more and more specific questions till you finally run out of answers. And another is to stick to actual experience: Tell me about a time when YOU did so and so... What did you do?, What was the result, What would you do differently, etc. Its always hard to say how an interview will go, the most important thing is to answer professionally and honestly.
