SolidWorks Workgroup PDM and MSMQ Event Format
Workgroup PDM MSMQ events are UTF-16 encoded XML documents. A simple schema provides the minimal set of information required to distinguish the event. Additional document information can be queried through the Workgroup PDM API. See the Workgroup PDM API Help for details.
If you extract data from Workgroup PDM Trigger messages directly using System.Messaging in .NET, you must use the ActiveX message formatter, not the XML message formatter.
