Did you look at:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Conceptual/ DesktopIcons/ch13.html

Note: The above is an old pre-Xcode Carbon document, which is so outdated that's it's worthless (unless you're still running Project Builder). Is there any current Apple document describing how to set an application's icon? The new Xcode 2.2 document makes no reference to it at all...


Short recipe:

1. Add the icon file to your project:
- In the main Xcode panel, select the "Resources" folder entry
- Click on "Project -> Add to Project..." from the main menu bar
- Add your *.icns file in the panel that comes up

2. Set the icon file to be the app's icon
- In the main Xcode panel, select your target.app under the "Targets" folder entry
- Click on the "Info" icon (blue circle with an "i" in the middle)
- Select the properties tab of the new panel that pops up
- Type in the name of the icon file in the designated field


Of course, there are other ways, too, but this should do it.

HTH,
Roland
