Hello,
thank you for quick answer. It definitely helps, but still, I would need 
little more sophisticated doxygen invocation. Is there some way how to do 
this exactly the same way, but portably (e.g. there is no doxygen, but 
doxygen.exe on win platforms, and no pipes also)? The only thing that comes 
to my mind is conditional invocation of @doxygen-unix or @doxygen-win - is 
there other (better, automatic) way?

constant VERSION : 1.0.0 ;

import notfile ;

notfile doc : @doxygen ;

actions doxygen
{
  ( cat Doxyfile ; echo "PROJECT_NUMBER=$(VERSION)" ) | doxygen -
}

I was looking at doxygen.jam module and its run rule, but I am missing 
something (and it also seems to solve only half of the problem above - does 
not solve pipes and shell commands):

import doxygen ;
doxygen.run doc : Doxyfile ;

$ bjam doc
