We actually have no need for unicode versions since our client base is what it is (niche products).  We do not see a need to move, except for the fact that newer Visual Studio (VS2013/VC12) versions attempt to force the issue.  MS did a poor job on that...but that's another story...

We have been using non-Unicode versions...although in our testing,  that does not seem to matter.

Sorry, but I can't be of any help.

I can only confirm that when using the UNICODE versions of the SkinFrameWork OCX in combination with CommandBars OCX (either using version 16.3.0 or 16.4.1), my application experiences sudden "Application Stopped Working" failures. 
My application is created using VB6.

Still on v17 Beta 3....we moved up to Visual Studio 2013 (VC12) and things are working a lot better.
We still get an exception during the exit but the skins are flopping as they should.

VC12 is using Windows SDK 7.1A since we are still supporting XP...

We're trying out the v17 Beta3 and having all kinds of issues.
We have opened several Bug Issues but seem to be at a stalemate...

The samples seem to work rather nicely using CFileDialog and the like...however when we put the SkinManager into our app...it seems to have several issues. 

The dlg.doModal() for CFileDialog either fails to pop up (resource issue??), have rendering issues (lots of icons in the CFileDialog are missing). 

When we try to switch Skins the software always crashes on exit with assertions from the cleanup of the Hooks (from SkinManager). 

The only thing we are doing is calls to like:
      XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin(_T(""), _T(""));  // no skin/theme - native Windows

OR

   XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin(m_sSkinsPath + skins[nSkin].pszPath, skins[nSkin].pszIni);

With the skins we copied from v17 beta Styles folder and the code from the SkinDMISample...
Anybody having similar issues? 


PS: we've only been successful with the Skin Manger if we  use
      XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin(_T(""), _T(""));  // no skin/theme - native Windows

Very frustrating...
