You probably never call ev's mainloop: you only call ev::run once with
NOWAIT, so unless any change happens before that call, libev code is never
invoked and therefore does not have a chance of calling your callback.

You would need to put something like ev_run (EV_A_ 0) into your main program
(which you haven't shown).

Also, ev::get_default_loop() (and .run) is internal undocumented
functionality which you should not call if you want your program to
continue to work with future versions.
