Subject: monitors on array variables

I have an IOC with several array PVs. I do not seem to be able to have them post monitors, so my display screens don't update. Has something changed between 3.14 and 3.15 which might cause this?

The PVs are declared in the dbd file like this:

      field(SPCT,DBF_NOACCESS) {
              prompt("Value")
             special(SPC_DBADDR)
             pp(TRUE)
             extra("void *           spct")
            }        

        field(PSPCT,DBF_NOACCESS) {
                prompt("Buffer Pointer")
                special(SPC_NOMOD)
                interest(4)
                extra("void *           pspct")
            }

and the changed values are posted in record support like this:

db_post_events(pscal,&(pscal->pspct),DBE_VALUE);

Am I doing something wrong? This setup used to work in 3.14, although I haven't tried regressing to 3.14 for this code.

Pete.
