<applications>
... possibly other things ...
   <application name="foo" class="bar" role="hi">
     <desktop>0</desktop>
   </application>
...
</applications>

you only need one of name and foo, role is optional. Use xprop WM_CLASS 
and click on a window to see values, the first string is for name and the 
second for class, use xprop WM_WINDOW_ROLE to get the role if you want to 
use that.
