WTL literature/examples are scattered here and there, and there is very minimal

One of the strongest arguments in support for using WTL over MFC was the fact that executable of WTL will be around 4x smaller in size than statically linked MFC Application.

I wonder if it’s necessary to insert destructors for the classes of the project.

I suppose (but I’m not sure) that Windows automatically calls destructors for classes...

But what’s the situation for classes that I have inserted in the software?

I never put destructor for these objects (dialogs, strings, bitmap, controls, custom objects…)

class YourClass
{
   ~YourClass (){/* no need to delete m_Bitmap */};
   CBitmap m_Bitmap;
};

class YourClass
{
   ~YourClass () {delete m_Bitmap;};
   CBitmap* m_Bitmap;
