To avoid that message change the constructor to accept a const char* argument:

On Pane(1,1) i need to add tabs, and hence i added above piece of code to create MFC tab. Creation of tab is successful. It returned TRUE, but tab is not visible on that view(window).

May i know what mistake i done in adding a tab to that CView window?
