[e-users] Ecore_Evas

[Daniel S. <sno...@op...>]

I've run into a small problem using ecore_evas and not entirely sure of 
the best approach to take on it. I dont know how many of you are actively 
using it, but here's to hoping at least one or two of you are :)

Problem: Need to refresh (return it to its original state after creating 
and moving many evas objects around on it) the window.

Old solution: The original program was using the X libraries for window 
creation and event handling, so to refresh the window, I simply free'd the 
evas I was painting on, created a new evas for the window and ran the 
initial setup routine (add background/borders/title etc). No problem here.

Since then I've altered it so window creation and event handling is done 
by ecore_evas. Now I've noticed that initialising an ecore_evas window 
creates both window and evas at the same time - you only get one evas for 
the window and when you free that evas, you can't easily manufacture 
another evas (note that ecore_evas_get only gets you the evas wrapped by 
the ecore_evas object. Once you've free'd that, there's no longer anything 
to get).

Is there an easier way to tackle this thing?

Cheers,
Daniel.
