MATLAB: How to control legacy_code generated file placement

legacy_codesimulink

Usual Simulink.fileGenControl 'CodeGenFolder' setting does not influence the path where the files are generated when calling:
legacy_code('sfcn_cmex_generate', def);
legacy_code('compile', def);
legacy_code('slblock_generate',def);
I could only achieve to modify the path by changing the cwd in the script, but that seems ugly. Is there a proper way?

The functionality to directly control the build path for Legacy Code Tool is currently unavailable with MATLAB. As a workaround, you can navigate into the desired folder, generate the files there and navigate out. This is a manual approach. Alternately, you could use scripting to achieve the same. I cannot think of a simpler workaround.
