[CONTRIB-108] c.c.pprint pprint-logical-block macro using private var

Thu, 5 May 2011 17:30:07 -0500

pprint-logical-block macro can't be used from the outside:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: var: clojure.contrib.pprint/current-level is not public

clojure.core/byte was modified a couple weeks ago as follows:

(defn byte
"Coerce to byte"
{:tag Byte
:inline (fn [x] `(. clojure.lang.RT (byteCast ~x)))}

[^Number x] (. x (byteValue)))
+ [^Number x] (clojure.lang.RT/byteCast x))

byteValue and byteCast behave differently with values outside the
range of byte values:
user=> (. 255 (byteValue))
-1
user=> (clojure.lang.RT/byteCast 255)
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Value out of range for byte: 255
(NO_SOURCE_FILE:0)

The new version breaks clojure.contrib.shell/sh's :out :bytes mode (mapping byte over values returned by InputStream.read in shell.clj, line 125).
Perhaps have sh use #(.byteValue %) instead of byte? (untested)
