Hi All,
How do I handle the playlist files (pls file)? The application developed by
me is through QT ToolKit, hence it able to stream pls files with mp3 formats
from shoutcast.com.

Now I have the codecs for aacplus.How do I integrate this codec with the
above.As this doesn't support playing pls files ?Any help or pointers would
be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance


Arnab,

You have to use HTTP to retrieve the .PLS (or .M3U and .XSPF) playlist file, parse it, extract the URL of the stream and then process the streaming audio. 

These are good places to learn about these playlist formats:
