Public bug reported:

I am trying to set a high resolution for a Java based application
(https://www.willuhn.de/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1310).

This application uses SWT which uses the GTK function
gtk_window_set_icon() to set an icon for the application.

However, no matter of the resolution I pass there the ALT-Tab switcher
uses a bad icon.

This has been reported as well for Python
(http://askubuntu.com/questions/90845/pygtk-application-icon-blurred-in-
unity) and reported in the forums
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2053292).

I tried to get more insights at http://askubuntu.com/questions/245875
/how-do-i-get-high-resolution-icons-in-unity-for-my-application-
without-a-deskto.

The following Java code shows the problem:
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;

public class Test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Display display = new Display();

    final int SIZE = 256;
    Image large = new Image(display, SIZE, SIZE);
    GC gc = new GC(large);
    gc.setBackground(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED));
    gc.fillArc(0, 0, SIZE, SIZE, 45, 270);
    gc.dispose();

    Shell shell = new Shell(display);
    shell.setImages(new Image[] {  large });

    shell.open();

    while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
      if (!display.readAndDispatch())
        display.sleep();
    }

    large.dispose();
    display.dispose();
  }
}
