The struct layout is a bit different when parsed within a template or not. Typically events forwarded from a different system do not have a template interpolated so they will trigger this bug.

* Bugfix: When parsed within a template BinXMLElementStart is not same (Velocidex#30) The struct layout is a bit different when parsed within a template or not. Typically events forwarded from a different system do not have a template interpolated so they will trigger this bug. Dependency identifier is optional: https://github.com/libyal/libevtx/blob/main/documentation/Windows%20XML%20Event%20Log%20(EVTX).asciidoc#414-element-start * Bugfix: Support multiple messages for the same Event ID (Velocidex#31) Some event ID have multiple messages stored in the message lists - these are generally designed for events which have different number of properties. So for example the message file might contain two messages for the same event id, one with 1 expansion and one with 2 expansions. Then the application might emit an event to the log file with 2 properties or only 1 property of the same event id. This pr stores both the messages and the number of expasions in the message set and is able to select the most appropriate one for each message - we aim to maximize the number of expasions available in the message string. * add chunk header LastEventRecOffset (Velocidex#32) Added the 'Last event record data offset' field to the Chunk Header because the data is present there. Reference: https://github.com/libyal/libevtx/blob/main/documentation/Windows%20XML%20Event%20Log%20(EVTX).asciidoc#31-chunk-header * Bugfix: Substitution token should not parse XML in template context (Velocidex#34) Fixes: Velocidex#33 --------- Co-authored-by: Mike Cohen <scudette@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: dora <dora.cpphp@gmail.com>
