"MFC application as xml base app" is not a well defined term. Are you talking about this: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/1B69C9FE-E422-4799-9EB5-6AC7034C52E1? But this is one thing; and you are probably asking for something different. But what? Yet another DirectUI? Why?

What exactly should be "XML base"? Are you looking to create something like XAML? This would be quite possible, but it will work exactly as you want to design it. This is just work to be done; what may require some expert's advice? Any particular concerns?

Hello Sergey,
Thanks for your reply! I am a newbie for MFC GUI actually. When I talked about MFC base app means how to use XML configuration file to define our window. I have noticed many MFC base application use a XML file to define color/window position and so on.
I know a little for WPF use xml to define button/window/frame.
Thanks,
Eugene

Hard to say something certain, because your intention is also not so certain. It's about having some existing UI system based both on XML (XAML or not) and MFC (or not, could be another UI library), or having to develop your own system based on such approach. Any concerns about either way? And you did not answer about DirectUI. Are you using it? considering?... And so on...
