Description
The example window_icon.rs does not work as expected under MacOS 14.2. Window icon gets neither set nor can it be changed. Instead it stays as the default icon or the icon provided by by the Info.plist gets used.
Using master
Whats the challenge about implementing this functionality as it is stated as unsupported?
