.binary and .elf files left behind in same folder as .side & .c project files after build.

[AndyLindsay]

The .binary and .elf files created by SimpleIDE used to be appear in the the memory model sub-folder (cmm/lmm). As of 1.0.51, they are still created there, but copies are also created in the project folder with the .side and .c files.

To reproduce this new behavior, open any .side program, F9, and then check the folder that contains the .side and .c project files with a file browser. The .binary and .elf files are created in the .cmm/.lmm folder (where they are expected to appear), but copies are also created a level up with the .side and .c files (where they should not appear).

The desired behavior is that no files involved with the build be automatically created at the project file level. The should only be created inside the memory model sub-folder (cmm/lmm).

@jsdenson - I built and tested v1.0.53 on Mac... this problem still exists.

UPDATE: It may be that this only happens on the Mac platform; that's the only place I specifically tested and verified it.

This indeed still happens on Windows and Mac. I've narrowed it down to the determination that it only happens on the first build after launching SimpleIDE. For example, here I opened SimpleIDE and then opened the Welcome project and built. Though it created a cmm folder, it wrote the .elf and .binary files to the root folder instead.

Second (and further) compile places .elf and .binary files (regardless of project) into the proper cmm subfolder. Restarting the SimpleIDE session duplicates the problem again reliably.

NOTE: In case it matters, this latest attempt was tested on a system that first had v1.0.2 RC2 installed, then v1.0.54 was installed (without first uninstalling v1.0.2 RC2).

Is this related to bug id #280 ?

[PropGit]

Yes, #280 is a duplicate of this issue.
