Code:
        NSImage nsImage = new NSImage();
        NSBitmapImageRep rep = new NSBitmapImageRep(width, height, 8, 3, false, false, 
                NSGraphics.DeviceRGBColorSpace, 0, 0); // 8bpp, 3bytes/pixel, no alpha
        rep.setBitmapData(bytes);
        nsImage.addRepresentation(rep);
        NSApplication.sharedApplication().setApplicationIconImage(nsImage);

Where bytes is a byte array describing the image. You'll need to load the image and perform the overlay in Java, then convert the Java representation of the image into the byte array in the format that the NSBitmapImageRep expects.
