Either set CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY or the target property
RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to e.g. ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin. This will cause all
the files that are required during runtime to be created in the specified
directory. For other kinds of files, there are similarly-named variables and
properties.
