Doxygen issue: chapter are all 0

0
votes

I have some doxygen groups defined in a fake .h file

@defgroup MainGroup
@brief ...

@defgroup SubGroup1
@brief ...
@ingroup MainGroup

@defgroup SubGroup1
@brief ...
@ingroup MainGroup

now the problem is that when generating the latex pdf, all chapters are starting with 0:

MainGroup
0.1
SubGroup1
0.2
SubGroup2
0.3

and all the pdf is a huge chapter 0.

To fix this I always need to tweak the refman.tex files by hand by inserting \chapter instead of \section, any way to have doxygen generate a proper index?

Normally it depends on a document class. Chapter is for book, try report class instead. - Archie
@Archie What is report class? Can you explain this a bit more please? - Marco A.
Put is as an answer for better formatting. - Archie

You have to use \documentclass{report} (unlike {book}) if you have just \sections in your document (and no \chapters). Now in doxygen configuration you can specify a custom header LATEX_HEADER where you can put your \documentclass{report} and some styling if you wish.
