[CMake] Where to put generated files.

Just wondering what the common convention is here. If I have some generated
c/c++ source files, say from gSoap or Lex/Yacc (and my build rules take
care of the generation), is the convention to generate these into the build
folder, or the original source folder? I understand I could use either, and
in some ways it makes more sense for them to go into the build folder. But
it also feels a little weird that all of my c files are not in the same
place if I do that.

Just wondering how other people do it.
