I know that we can set it through manifest file using android:icon attribute.But how can we set it in java code?
It doesn’t make sense to set it programmatically, the launcher has to display the application icon when the application isn’t active.
If you take a look at How to change an application icon programmatically in Android?, you will find a comment, which links to this sample code in the Android developer API demos: LaucherShortcuts.
It seams that the Activity can create a LauncherShortcut, which can have a different icon (see function setupShortcut()). If you want the user to select the Icon, you have to display a list of icons when creating the shortcut. But again, it is a shortcut. In the list of application the original icon appears.
