I am afraid I did not understand your problem much. Using the ecal
libraries (client), you just need to create/use a calendar source
(ESource) and use the APIs to create events.  Evolution-Data-Server
actually creates the events in response to your request - hence you do
not have to notify separately. 

By gnome-desktop calendar - do you mean the Clock applet ? If yes, make
sure the calendar in which the event was created is enabled.

No, Log-offs and system restarts have no role to play here. Refer to the
test-ecal.c under calendar/tests in evolution-data-server module for
some reference code.
