Text contrib module and Tesseract

Good afternoon to everyone. First of all, sorry for my english hehe. I've been trying to build the opencv contrib module 'text', however I haven't got sucess. Note: Other modules like xfeatures2d have never given me a problem.

My platform is windows 7 x64 and I use VS2013 as compiler, I've followed this tutorial(http://vorba.ch/2014/tesseract-3.03-vs2013.html) in order to build Tesseract 3.04 as LIB, but after compiling it succesfully, I want to generate the vproj with cmake and the problem is the following:

In CMake GUI, having previously selected opencv source, EXTRAS directory, etc etc, I don't get the vars under 'Tesseract' group set correcly (INCLUDE AND LIBS). I know it because when I click on configure, The log says "Tesseract: NO".

I've inspected the FindTesseract cmake script and I think that it doesn't work....

Please, anyone could give me a little clue about what's happening? How can I build the opencv text module to use Tesseract functions?

Also I've tried to compile text module adding link paths to Tesseract but when I want to use in my program I get link errors about undefined symbols...

This situation is taking me serveral days bothering me. Are there someone who is using text module under windows?

Really, thank you so very much in advanced.
