Taskbar icon with lwjgl?

Question

I want to add a taskbar icon for my running lwjgl process on Windows 7.

Display.setIcon changes successfully the icon in the topleft of the window, but not in the taskbar.

What do to?

My code, something like:

ArrayList byteBuffers = new ArrayList();
byteBuffers.add( ImageHelper.loadImageAsIconImage("stickmanicon32x32.png") );
byteBuffers.add( ImageHelper.loadImageAsIconImage("stickmanicon16x16.png") );
System.out.println( "taskbaricon result: " + Display.setIcon(byteBuffers.toArray(new ByteBuffer[]{})) );

I tried adding a 40x40 image too, but no change.

Answer 1

This code worked just fine for me. No need of extra libs.

ByteBuffer[] list = new ByteBuffer[2];
list[0] = createBuffer(ImageIO.read(new File("src/Images/Tests/icon16.png")));
list[1] = createBuffer(ImageIO.read(new File("src/Images/Tests/icon32.png")));
Display.setIcon(list);

Answer 2

You should have a look at J7Goodies a Java library that provides many Windows 7 features.

Answer 3

This is what i found out after messing around after a few hours.

I used the slick-util lib.

Display.setIcon(new ByteBuffer[] {
                    new ImageIOImageData().imageToByteBuffer(ImageIO.read(new File("res/game/gameIcon.png")), false, false, null),
                    new ImageIOImageData().imageToByteBuffer(ImageIO.read(new File("res/game/gameIcon.png")), false, false, null)
                    });
