Okay, I just compiled and tested this simple example and it worked (in so far 
as the TreeView was instantiated correctly and my custom skin was installed).  

Does your custom skin have a no-arg constructor?  That's the only reason I can 
see that the "InstantiationException" would be thrown.

                DesktopApplicationContext.main(Test.class, args);

Nope.
