I added the following statement to my project stdafx.h to generate xp style controls for the dialogs which don’t have profuis theme applied - #pragma comment(linker,"/manifestdependency:\"type=’win32’ name=’Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls’ version=’6.0.0.0’ processorArchitecture=’x86’ publicKeyToken=’6595b64144ccf1df’ language=’*’\"")
I was able to get the style after this change but this resulted in application taking around 50% CPU usage continuously till the main window is open (which actually has the profuis theme applied).
Is there a known issue of incompatibility between profuis and xp style controls? Is there a workaround for the same?

We cannot reproduce the performance problem using Prof-UIS sample applications. Could you please modify some sample project, make it working slow and send the modified project to us?

There are no known issues related to themed common controls. Besides, all the sample applications provided with Prof-UIS use manifest_x86.xml manifest which you can find inside res folder. The manifest_x86.xml manifest contains the same dependency.

With reference to the issue reported, I found that the UI is getting update command irrespective of whether the UI is in focus or not and the number of requests coming in are very high, which was resulting in the high CPU usage. The following is a part of the stack from the application -
CWnd::SendMessageToDescendants AfxCallWndProc: CExtToolControlBar::WindowProc CExtControlBar::WindowProc CControlBar::WindowProc CWnd::WindowProc CWnd::OnWndMsg CExtControlBar::OnIdleUpdateCmdUI CExtBarButton::OnUpdateCmdUI CCmdUI::DoUpdate MyMainFrame::OnCmdMsg CFrameWnd::OnCmdMsg CCmdTarget::OnCmdMsg _AfxDispatchCmdMsg .....calls to my ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI functions
Please suggest.

Please provide us with more details about where exactly the call stack listing points to the CExtToolControlBar::WindowProc() method. Additionally ... What happened in the MyMainFrame::OnCmdMsg() method and why it causes invocation of the CCmdUI::DoUpdate() method. This looks like some ticks with direct access to toolbar button objects.

The call stack provided is top down and not bottom up. CCmdUI::DoUpdate() is making a call to MyMainFrame::OnCmdMsg() and not otherwise.
Please let me know if you need any further details on this.
