How to put 'url' template tag into 'with'

Question

I am trying to cache return value of {% url ..} function to a variable with with template tag.

here is my code: {% with path=url "show_cart" %} {% endwith %}

And with this code I get this exception: TemplateSyntaxError u'with' received an invalid token: u'"show_cart"'

Is it possible to assign result of url function to variable?

You can do this. Not sure what Django version is required for this syntax:

{% url 'view' as the_url %}
{{ the_url }}
