The xFx support has a similar class interface to the rest, with block
CTOR parameters so that it's fully formed.

I can't find the link to your schemas page, James, so I couldn't
determine which are optional. I've assumed they're all mandatory.

private static void TestStockSchema ()
{
xAPStockReportMessage msg = new xAPStockReportMessage ();
xAPStockReportBlock block = new xAPStockReportBlock ("MI4",
"mi4 Home
Automation", 63.40F, 3.50F);
xAPStockReportBlock block_change_na = new xAPStockReportBlock
("KCSW",
"KC Software", 88.89F);
xAPStockReportBlock block_down = new xAPStockReportBlock ("WAGA",
"WagaSoft", 12.00F, -8.8F);

msg.AddMessageBlock(block);
msg.AddMessageBlock(block_change_na);
msg.AddMessageBlock(block_down);

xAPSender.ApplicationSender.Send(msg);
Console.WriteLine(msg.ToString());
}

Probably the only interesting one is the 'block_change_na' item,
which, if no change price value is specified, assumes it's a N/A
entry.

Is the number of decimal places and such-like important in this one?
I've made it look exactly like your Stock xAPp using 2 decimal places:

Stock.MI4
{
price=63.40
company=mi4 Home Automation
change=+3.50
}

I've also forced in a + if it's a positive number, as shown above.
