    Have a look at the TaskBar and TaskItem classes of SWT.

    It’s basically:

    display.getSystemTaskBar().getItem(shell).setProgress(66);

    where display is the current display and shell is the window associated with the dock icon.

    There’s also a code snippet for how to access the task bar.
