[Boost-docs] boostbook outside of boost

Hi all,

I would like to use boostbook for documenting a non-boost C++ library.
I currently use an autotools build system with doxygen to generate API
documentation and I have a manual I have written for it in docbook. I
would like to merge the docubook and doxygen stuff into a single tool
so i can have references between the doxygen API documentation and the
manual documentation with a consistent style.

I figure this sort of thing is possible from reading the documentation
on boostbook:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/doc/html/boostbook.html

However I have found no documentation on using boostbook outside of
the boost jam based build system, or calling it manually or on how the
boostbook/doxygen intergration works.

Are there any example projects that are using boostbook outside of a
jam based build system which I could take a look at or any relevant
documentation I can read?

Thanks,
Brendon.
