[Doxygen-users] Alias defgroup?

[mathog <ma...@ca...>]

Part 1:

This defgroup is defined (it is for a type of metafile) in file uemf.h:

/** \defgroup U_EMF_LOGBRUSH_lbStyle_Qualifiers EMF LB_Style Enumeration
   For U_LOGBRUSH lbStyle field
   EMF manual 2.2.20
   @{
*/
#define U_BS_SOLID         0 //!< Solid brush.
#define U_BS_NULL          1 //!< Null brush.
#define U_BS_HOLLOW        1 //!< Hollow brush.
#define U_BS_HATCHED       2 //!< Hatched brush.
#define U_BS_PATTERN       3 //!< Pattern brush.
#define U_BS_INDEXED       4 //!< Indexed brush.
#define U_BS_DIBPATTERN    5 //!< Dibpattern brush.
#define U_BS_DIBPATTERNPT  6 //!< Dibpatternpt brush.
#define U_BS_PATTERN8X8    7 //!< Pattern 8x8 brush.
#define U_BS_DIBPATTERN8X8 8 //!< Dibpattern 8x8 brush.
#define U_BS_MONOPATTERN   9 //!< Monopattern brush.
/** @} */

For a different type of metafile the same values are referred to in 
uwmf.h as:

/*  BrushStyle Enumeration                WMF manual 2.1.1.4
   Same as "EMF LB_Style Enumeration" in uemf.h
*/

and the functions that use those bits have comment lines like:

     uint16_t            Style;              //!< BrushStyle enumeration

So how does one tell Doxygen that "BrushStyle Enumeration" as some sort 
of alias
for the first enumeration?  In most of these cases there are no extra 
defines to
put in the include file.

Part 2.
In some cases there are slight differences between the two defgroups.  
For instance the
one for WMF might have a few more values, or a few less.  Is there some 
way to indicate this, short of duplicating the defgroup?
