How to enable sphere icon on scene in blueprint generated from C++ ?

You need to add a billboard component to your object in the class constructor:

AMyClass::AMyClass(const FObjectInitializer& Init) : Super(Init)
{
    //Add root component
    USceneComponent* SceneComponent = CreateDefaultSubobject<USceneComponent>(TEXT("SceneComp"));
    RootComponent = SceneComponent;

    //Add billboard component
    UBillboardComponent* SpriteComponent = CreateEditorOnlyDefaultSubobject<UBillboardComponent>(TEXT("Sprite"));
    // Structure to hold one-time initialization
    struct FConstructorStatics
    {
        ConstructorHelpers::FObjectFinderOptional<UTexture2D> DecalTexture;
        FConstructorStatics() : DecalTexture(TEXT("/Engine/Editor/Slate/Icons/AssetIcons/Sphere_64x.Sphere_64x")) {}
    };
    static FConstructorStatics ConstructorStatics;
    // Set up sprite component
    if (SpriteComponent)
    {
        SpriteComponent->Sprite = ConstructorStatics.DecalTexture.Get();
        SpriteComponent->SetupAttachment(RootComponent);
	    SpriteComponent->SetUsingAbsoluteScale(true);
        SpriteComponent->bIsScreenSizeScaled = true;
        SpriteComponent->bReceivesDecals = false;
        SpriteComponent->bHiddenInGame = true;
    }
}
