Sujit,

I don't have it in my BuildApp.xml file. This is v12/v13

Design Ref (http://doc.4d.com/4Dv13.4/help/Title/en/page1270.html):
------------------------

When building a double-clickable application, 4D handles the  
customizing of the icon.

In order to do this, you must create an icon file (icns type), prior  
to building the application file, and place it next to the interpreted  

structure file.

Note: Apple, Inc. provides a specific tool for building icns icon
files.

Your icon file must have the same name as the interpreted structure  
file and include the .icns extension.

4D automatically takes this file into account when building the
double-
clickable application (the .icns file is renamed ApplicationName.icns  
and copied into the Resources folder; the CFBundleFileIcon entry of  
the ìinfo.plistî file is updated).

-------------------------

If I understand this correctly (and that is what I do), the .icns file  

must be next to your .4DB file. Which is inside the .4dbase package!

Hello,

seems the good old Icon Composer was removed in X Code 4 ?

which is why I keep a copy of X Code 3 on my OS X 10.9â=80¦

Wow, sorry.
After rereading my message I noticed this sentence might be quite  
arrogant.

I did not want to emphasise that I understand the Design Ref text  
correctly, but that I'm using the .icns file next to my .4DB file. The  

text between brackets should have been at the end of the sentence.
