proxying another protocol to http/https

[Jodi Bosa]

I would like to leverage mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http to proxy client
requests (from another protocol).
Assuming I have input & output filters that handle the other protocol with
the client, shouldn't I simply be able to:


Handler
{
    r->filename = apr_psprintf(r->pool, "proxy:https://%s";, hostname);
    r->proxyreq = PROXYREQ_PROXY;
    return DECLINED; /* to allow mod_proxy to kick in and do it's thing */
}


Thanks
