It certainly is! :-)))

private static void TestSerialCommsSchema ()
{
xAPSerialCommsMessage msg = new xAPSerialCommsMessage ();

msg.AddMessageBlock(new xAPSerialSetupBlock (1, 1200, 1, 8,
xAPSerialSetupBlock.PARITY_TYPE.Even,
xAPSerialSetupBlock.FLOW_CONTROL.Hardware));
msg.AddMessageBlock(new xAPSerialSendBlock (1, "Hello, World"));

xAPSerialSetupBlock setup_block = msg.SetupBlock;
// Do stuff with it

xAPSerialSendBlock send_block = msg.SendBlock;
// Do stuff with it

Console.WriteLine(msg.ToString());
} // End of TestSerialCommsSchema

Generates the following...

xap-header
{
v=12
hop=1
uid=FFABCD00
class=Serial.Comms
source=KCSoft.TestFramework.anya
}
Serial.Setup
{
parity=Even
stop=1
flow=Hardware
port=1
databits=8
baud=1200
}
Serial.Send
{
port=1
data=Hello, World
}

30mins work. Let me know if you want to change a few things in this
otherwise I can write it up in the usual way. It'll be in the next
release of xAPFramework.net for you.

I'm tempted to make the stop bits an enum so I can use the value One,
OneAndAHalf and Two instead.
