change icon displayed in title bar for a java desktop app

Question

I have a Java Desktop Application project created with NetBeans. The icon that is displayed in my main window's titlebar, by default, is the java logo. The same logo is displayed when I minimize this window to the Taskbar.

I would like to change this icon with one specific to my application, but didn't find how.

Thanks

It is a good idea to become familiar with the JavaDocs instead or relying on your autmagic IDE. — Andrew Thompson, Mar 12 '11 at 14:42
