Linking of Openscenegraph libraries for CMake - c++

Question

Well,I am new to CMake and want to edit flight simulation code in eclipse instead of visual studio. For that purpose, I downloaded the source code of Simgear, CMake, Boost libraries, open scene graph and openalsoft.
Now I have all the data available but I dont know where to place some of these libraries. As a result, when I run CMake and give reference to my flightgear code, it complains that the openscenegraph libraries are not installed.
Please help me with where I need to put all these files so as to convert my code to eclipse using CMake. I have already installed boost and openal libraries. Only issue is of openscenegraph libraries which I put in program files at the following path "C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph-3.4.0" but CMake can't access it. The error code is
Eclipse version is set to 3.6 (Helios). Adjust CMAKE_ECLIPSE_VERSION if this is wrong.

I'm not a CMake expert, here some things I did in order to create ROS & OSG project in Linux:
add an environment variable (if it is not there yet) to the .bashrc file:
export PATH=${PATH}: .../OpenSceneGraph-3.4.0/bin (your absolute path)
then in CMake file add:
FIND_PACKAGE ( OpenSceneGraph COMPONENTS osgSim osgUtil osgDB osgFX osgGA osgTerrain osgViewer osgText osgWidget osgManipulator osg osgShadow)
target_link_libraries(name_of_your_executable ${PROJECT_NAME} ${OPENSCENEGRAPH_LIBRARIES})
