Directing to an output directory?

Is there anyway to instruct a compiled project to put output filex (hex, lst, etc) into a specific directory? I'm using CCS from MPLAB directly and can't seem to find anyway to do it.

Thanks,
Tomas

I presume by the lack of response that this is (still?) not possible?

If there was an option to control the output location of the .HEX file
it would be listed in this section of the manual, or in the README.TXT:

Give this a try:

// put this atop your main.c file (before including main.h)
#define _BUILD_FILE "myCoolProject"
#define _BUILD_DIR "s:\uControllers\pic\bin"

// put this in your main.h file just under #device line
#define _BUILD_DIR "\" _BUILD_FILE ".hex"
#export (file=_BUILD_FILE, HEX)
