We have some 12.x code that subclasses the Tab control theme and works well:

CXTTabView     * mAppSettingsPane;
  ...
  ...
 
CMJTabBaseTheme * pTabTheme2 = new CMJTabBaseTheme();
mAppSettingsPane->SetTheme(xtThemeOfficeXP);
mAppSettingsPane->SetTheme(pTabTheme2);
 
where:
 
class _XTP_EXT_CLASS CMJTabBaseTheme : public CXTPTabBaseThemeOfficeXP

After upgrading to 15.2, the code no longer compiles. Looking at the source it appears CXTTabView has been renamed to CXTPTabView, and the SetTheme() method no longer can take a pointer to a custom theme. I can't seem to find any example of how to achieve the same thing in 15.x.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

thx!

Just to clsoe the loop, we've worked around this issue by subclassing the CXTPTabView and adding our own theme handler:

class CMJTabView : public CXTPTabView
{
public:
	void SetCustomTheme(CXTPTabBaseTheme* pTheme) { m_pTheme = pTheme; 	RefreshMetrics(); }
};
