CMake errors (windows gui)

Question

I have been trying long time to fix this problem with no success .

I want to configure and generate a source ; When I try to do that , I receive a couple of errors.

This is the results :

CMake Error at C:/Program Files (x86)/CMake 2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1106 (message):
Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.

Boost version: 1.54.0

Boost include path: C:/Program Files (x86)/boost_1_54_0

The following Boost libraries could not be found:

      boost_serialization

No Boost libraries were found.  You may need to set BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT to the location of Boost.

Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:6 (find_package)

IRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR = IRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR-NOTFOUND

Could NOT find IRRLICHT (missing:  IRRLICHT_LIBRARY IRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR) 
CMake Warning (dev) at CMakeLists.txt:16 (link_directories):

IRRLICHT_LIBRARY-NOTFOUND

as a link directory.

Policy CMP0015 is not set: link_directories() treats paths relative to the source dir.  Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0015" for policy details.  Use the cmake_policy command to set the policy and suppress this warning.
This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

Run cmake-gui program and set proper paths (sources and build).

Then you will be able to edit manualy some variables in window below.

You need to find there:

Boost_SERIALIZATION_LIBRARY

and

Boost_SERIALIZATION_LIBRARY_DEBUG

and set them so they will point to proper boost libraries ex:

D:/boost_1_53_0/stage/lib/libboost_serialization-mgw48-mt-1_53.a
D:/boost_1_53_0/stage/lib/libboost_serialization-mgw48-mt-d-1_53.a

-d- in name of second path stands for debug
