• actually you do not need to start the engine to create keys.

• the code below works in main()

  int iResult = 0;
  RippleAddress naSeed;
  std::cout << "Dave's Hacked Version" << std::endl;
  if (! RandomNumbers::getInstance ().initialize ()) {
  std::cout << "Unable to add system entropy" << std::endl ;
  return -1;
  }
  // next bit is from my implementation - you will need to get the passphrase
  if (argc < 2)
  naSeed.setSeedRandom ();
  else
  if (!naSeed.setSeedGeneric (argv[1])) {
  std::cout << "Bad passphrase" << std::endl;
  return -1;
  }
  RippleAddress naAccount = RippleAddress::createAccountPublic(naSeed);
  Json::Value obj (Json::objectValue);
  obj["master_seed"] = naSeed.humanSeed ();
  obj["account_id"] = naAccount.humanAccountID ();
  obj["public_key"] = naAccount.humanAccountPublic();

  //obj["master_seed_hex"] = to_string (naSeed.getSeed ());
  //auto acct = naAccount.getAccountPublic();
  //obj["public_key_hex"] = strHex(acct.begin(), acct.size());

  std::cout << "account ID : " << obj["account_id"]<< std::endl;
  std::cout << "private key : " << obj["master_seed"]<< std::endl;
  std::cout << "public key : " << obj["public_key"]<< std::endl;
