how to get cPath out of categories_id (without tep_get_path = db Queries)

[loop]

Hi All
i want to have the complete cPath from the categories_id and i'm wondering if that's possible, without use function tep_get_path($current_category_id = '')

I need a solution to use in productlisting, to have a link back to the according category and i do not want to query for every link the DB (that would create to much DB traffic)

thank you in advance!

[loop]

or ist the best way to use:
$ancestors = $GLOBALS['category_tree']->get_ancestors($category_id);
and thenn make the cpath with a foreach?

thank you

[loop]

I would really appreciate the best solution on how to get from the categories_id to the cPath
can somebody help me here out?

One of the benefits of being a Pro Supporter is that you can post questions in the VIP PRO Supporters forum where help and support direct from the Core Developers is available. Maybe they can help.
