Thanks to Murray Cumming's answer, and after a few reading of the API
reference, I done,

 	Gdk::Display dpy;
        XklEngine * engine;
   	engine = xkl_engine_get_instance(dpy.get_default());

But the compiler tells me,

error: cannot convert ‘Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Display>’ to ‘Display*’ for
argument ‘1’ to ‘XklEngine* xkl_engine_get_instance(Display*)’

What's wrong ?... Are the pointer "*" and "Glib::RefPtr" not the same
?... Could be solved anyway ?...
