The alternative answer is by using TransformProcessType() to show/hide dock icon dynamically in code.

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

void toggleDockIcon(bool show) {
  ProcessSerialNumber psn = {0, kCurrentProcess};
  if (show) {
    TransformProcessType(&psn, kProcessTransformToForegroundApplication);
  } else {
    TransformProcessType(&psn, kProcessTransformToUIElementApplication);
  }
}
