Problem with IconImage for JFrame

Question

If I create an BufferedImage by ImageIO.read for example and then call getScaledInstance on this image and set the scaled Image to a JFrame as the IconImage (via setIconImage(Image image)), the application hangs.
Has anyone else this problem?

Answer 1

ok ok, i read it and now think that this is a sscce:
import java.awt.Image;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class Start
     public static void main(String[] args)
          final JFrame frame = new JFrame();
          final Image image, imageScaled;
          try
               image = ImageIO.read(new File("test.png"));
               imageScaled = image.getScaledInstance(8, 8, Image.SCALE_DEFAULT);
               frame.add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(image)));
               //frame.setIconImage(image); works
               frame.setIconImage(imageScaled); // works not
               frame.pack();
               frame.setVisible(true);
          catch (IOException e)
               System.err.println(e.getMessage());
               e.printStackTrace(System.err);
}
