That seems like overkill to me. Can't we just put the .icns in the JRE (Contents/Home/jre/lib/images) and load it from there? What are we guarding against by putting it into a .h file? OpenJDK will use Oracle icons ? Even for the community version ?

I was wondering about this too. It seems wrong. The icon, and/or the header file should be in "closed". We do not put branded images in the open tree, no matter how its encoded since they aren't open source. The openjdk should use something like the open source duke icon. I am not sure I see how/where that works.

BTW good luck seeing
