DAT_MAPx - Map primitive

Description:
Map a primitive (access type specified by routine name).
Invocation:
CALL DAT_MAPx( LOC, MODE, NDIM, DIM, PNTR, STATUS )
Arguments:
LOC = CHARACTER * ( DAT__SZLOC ) (Given)
Primitive locator.
MODE = CHARACTER * ( DAT__SZMOD ) (Given)
Access mode ('READ', 'UPDATE' or 'WRITE').
NDIM = INTEGER (Given)
Number of dimensions.
DIM = INTEGER( NDIM ) (Given)
Object dimensions.
PNTR = INTEGER (Returned)
Pointer to the mapped value.
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
The global status.
