[CMake] How to add CMake includes and libraries to Visual Studio Solution?

[hellhound at binary-revolution.org]

Where did you define your INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES? I also tried to set an absolute
path instead of using the CMake list, same result. Nothing is set...

Here is the link to the complete cmake file:
http://binrevengine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/binrevengine/modules/brGraphics/branches/hellhound-dev/CMakeLists.txt?revision=1039&view=markup

The additional cmake scripts could be found here:
