There currently isn't a 'framer' class for AAC audio.  If, however, your 
input source produces discrete AAC frames - i.e., each call to 
"getNextFrame()" on the input source delivers a single, complete AAC frame 
- then you won't need a separate 'framer' class.

If, however, your input AAC source delivers a byte source, then you will 
need a write your own 'framer' class to parse this into frames.  I suggest 
using the existing code for "testMPEG1or2AudioStreamFramer" as a model.
