When you use the Report Engine or the Design Engine in an RCP
application you skip the platform startup because the platform should
already be started. Also do not set birt home or set it to ""

//Report Engine

EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();

try{
// Create the report engine
IReportEngineFactory factory = (IReportEngineFactory)
org.eclipse.birt.core.framework.Platform
.createFactoryObject(
IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY );
IReportEngine engine = factory.createReportEngine( config );

} catch (Exception e) {
}

//Design Engine

IDesignEngine dengine=null;

DesignConfig dconfig = new DesignConfig( );
IDesignEngineFactory dfactory = (IDesignEngineFactory) Platform
.createFactoryObject(
IDesignEngineFactory.EXTENSION_DESIGN_ENGINE_FACTORY );
dengine = dfactory.createDesignEngine( dconfig );

There are a lot of examples in the DevShare on Birt-Exchange.org Here
is a simple de api example:
