chore(deps): bump pywin32 from 303 to 305

[dependabot]

Bumps pywin32 from 303 to 305.

Release notes

Sourced from pywin32's releases.

Release 305

The changes

You should use pip:

pip install pywin32 --upgrade

More details in the README

.exe installers are now deprecated, but while they still exist, you must choose both the correct Python version and "bittedness". Even if you have a 64bit computer, if you installed a 32bit version of Python you must install the 32bit version of pywin32.

There is one binary per-version, per-bittedness. To determine what version of Python you have, start Python and look at the first line of the banner. Compare these 2:

Python 2.7.2+ ... [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Python 2.7.2+ ... [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If the installation process informs you that Python is not found in the registry, it almost certainly means you have downloaded the wrong version - either for the wrong version of Python, or the wrong "bittedness".

But as above: .exe installers are deprecated - please use pip.

Release 304

The changes

If you use pip: pip install pywin32 --upgrade

A number of things don't work via pip, so you may choose to install binaries - but you must choose both the correct Python version and "bittedness". Note that due to changes in Python there are no binary installers for version 3.10 32bit and later, so pypi is your only option there.

Even if you have a 64bit computer, if you installed a 32bit version of Python you must install the 32bit version of pywin32.

There is one binary per-version, per-bittedness. To determine what version of Python you have, start Python and look at the first line of the banner. Compare these 2:

Python 2.7.2+ ... [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Python 2.7.2+ ... [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If the installation process informs you that Python is not found in the registry, it almost certainly means you have downloaded the wrong version - either for the wrong version of Python, or the wrong "bittedness".

Changelog

Sourced from pywin32's changelog.

Build 305, released 2022-11-06

• Installation .exe files were deprecated.

• @​kxrob put a lot of work towards removing use of the deprecated Unicode API so we can build on Python 3.12. This should be largely invisible, but please report any unintended consequences.

• odbc: Handle varchar(max)/nvarchar(max) column sizes (#1954)

• win32api.GetTickCount() now returns an unsigned 64bit integer (@​kxrob, #1946)

• win32pipe.GetNamedPipeHandleState() now takes a 3rd optional param indicating whether the username should be returned, and related constants added. (@​kxrob, #1946)

• Added win32gui.GetTopWindow() and win32gui.GetAncestor() (@​CristiFati, #1928)

• Tweaks to how pywintypes searches for DLLs to better support virtualenvs created with --system-site-packages. (@​saaketp, #1933)

• Added win32event.CreateWaitableTimerExW (#1945, @​zariiii9003)

• Changes in PARAM handling. Some functions which returned a WPARAM or LPARAM allowed you to return a pointer to a Python buffer object or a PyUnicode. These functions now only accept a Python long to be returned. Note that this DOES NOT apply to functions with accept WPARAM or LPARAM as arguments, only when they are being returned. Impacted functions are OnNotify handler, LV_ITEM/TV_ITEM objects, PyIContextMenu3::HandleMenuMsg2, and the result of a WNDPROC/DLGPROC (#1927).

• service registration had an overhaul, avoiding a complicated, and ultimately unnecessary "single globally registered service runner" concept. Now, when registering a service, the host pythonservice.exe runner will be copied to sys.exec_prefix, along with possibly pywintypesXX.dll and run from there. (#1908)

• Dropped support for allowing a bytes object to be passed where a COM BSTR is expected - this support was accidental on the path from 2.x->3.x.

• win32crypt's PyCERTSTORE.CertCloseStore()'s Flags argument has been deprecated as it is likely to crash the process if CERT_CLOSE_STORE_FORCE_FLAG is specified. The underlying function is now always called with CERT_CLOSE_STORE_CHECK_FLAG, and support for this param will be dropped at some point in the future.

• Fix a bug where win32crypt.CryptQueryObject() would return a PyCTL_CONTEXT object instead of a PyCERT_CONTEXT for base64 encoded certificates (#1859)

• win32crypt.CryptQueryObject() is now able to return PyCTL_CONTEXT objects.
