how to get doxygen to have man pages in several different manual sections?

What do I do if I have man pages that should have different extensions within the same project?

The Doxyfile contains the following:

The MAN_EXTENSION tag determines the extension that is added to

the generated man pages (default is the subroutine's section .3)

MAN_EXTENSION = .3

In my project I have not only a C API, which should have man pages in the .3 section, but also some command line tools, which should have extension .1.

Can Doxygen handle this?

Thanks!

You cannot have two different man page extensions as the result of a single doxygen run. But you could make 2 configuration files with different settings for MAN_EXTENSION and run doxygen on each one separately.
