Add option to configure compiler output directory
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-514
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-514
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Compiler (General)
         Environment: Thrift SVN revision 752489 from trunk.
            Reporter: Mike Heffner
            Priority: Minor


I would like to change the output directory the compiler uses. For example, 
compiling to Python uses "gen-py" as the output directory and there is 
currently no option to change that. Suggest adding an option to specify the 
output directory. This can alleviate some issues when integrating 
auto-generation into Makefile build infrastructures.

Suggestions from Michael Greene on thrift-dev@:

Mike, If you're feeling adventurous, you can change it in your own
copy--each of the generators supplies its own output directory name.
For example, see the assignment out_dir_base_ = "gen-py"; in the
constructor of
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/thrift/trunk/compiler/cpp/src/generate/t_py_generator.cc
