The replies from Nigel and Dan are correct that it tries to
auto-detect the appropriate engine. It will try X first and fall back
to FB if it can't connect to the X server. If the fallbacks aren't
working correctly, let me know as I don't currently have a system to
test it on. Normally, you can set the default engine on a per-user
config basis, but there are some ecore_config changes in the works
that are preventing this from working right now.
I noticed both of the code snippet's you've sent are calling ecore
functions and not EWL functions, are you calling ewl_init() prior to
these snippets, or are they just simple test cases? You can call the
ecore functions without adversely affecting EWL, but you have to call
ewl_init() for certain variables to be setup correctly.
