DAT Limitations 

The following limitations exist in DAT:

 *  Only CM SL.PUB.SYS symbols are accessible.  This is because
    SL.PUB.SYS is the only CM library/program file that is dumped by the
    DUMP utility.

 *  Only NL.PUB.SYS symbols are accessible.  This is because NL.PUB.SYS
    is treated as a special file by the DUMP utility.  The complete NL is
    dumped along with a pre-built symbol table that enables DAT to
    quickly map back and forth between addresses and symbol names.

 *  NM stack traces only trace procedures in NL.PUB.SYS. An exception to
    this is when the unwind descriptors for the code that called
    NL.PUB.SYS are memory-resident.

 *  In DAT, the EXIT command terminates the DAT program immediately.
