Retrieving the current working directory from a Sandboxed command-line application

Question

Now I am trying to use my command line application written in Objective-C.

Question

When the application was not in the sandbox, I could get the directory in which the user called the application using [[NSFileManager defaultManager] currentDirectoryPath]. However, after the sandbox, the application always returns for the current directory, /Users/{MY_ACCOUNT}/Library/Containers/{BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER}/Dataregardless of where the command line application is called from.

Code example

In fact, I want to know the absolute path to the files that the user passed as arguments to the command.

So, when, for example, I invoke my command line application as follows:

$ pwd
/Users/MY_ACCOUNT/Desktop
$ ./foo/my_executable subfolder/myfile.txt

Next part:

NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithFileSystemRepresentation:argv[1] isDirectory:NO relativeToURL:nil];
printf("path: %s\n", [[url absoluteURL] fileSystemRepresentation]);

the application will not return the sandbox :

path: /Users/MY_ACCOUNT/Desktop/subfolder/myfile.txt

but in the Sandbox :

path: /Users/MY_ACCOUNT/Library/Containers/BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER/Data/subfolder/myfile.txt
