How to get 'url' of an object in some language version?

I have a 'survey' object and I know its id, so I can fetch it from node in this way:


$surveyObject = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetchByContentObjectID($this->userAndGroupData['survey_id']);

then:

$url = $surveyObject[0]->attribute('url');

It gives me url in last version (if I'am correct...).

Thing is I need my 'url' parameter for other object language version. How to get this version.
having object id and language identifier?

I would like to do it in clean php, without using templates.

I'll extend this question with another example. Node $node has two translations with two different object names that should result in two different URL aliases. URL translations are enabled (version 4.2, default config):

<?php
$node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetch( 67, 'pol-PL' ); //default lang
var_dump( $node->urlAlias() );
$node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetch( 67, 'eng-US' );
var_dump( $node->urlAlias() );
?>

The above code returns two differently populated $node objects, but the urlAlias() method returns the same value - why? Is it because it always returns a valid URL alias based on environment (current siteaccess) settings?

Since not the above, what would be the way to fetch URL aliases for different translations of a node?

Thanks,
Piotrek
