Removes the
--skip-verstampflag by making it obsolete by resolving the bootstraping (aka chicken & egg) problem.This is done by using a pure python implementation rather than relying on
pywin32itself. The implementation was originally pulled from https://github.com/enthought/pywin32-ctypes/blob/main/win32ctypes/win32api.py , then adapted, simplified and typed.I also fixed the
bulkstampscript enough that it can at least run (but I haven't yet properly tested it)I considered moving
win32/Lib/win32verstamp.pytowin32/scripts/VersionStamp/verstamp.py, but someone downstream might be usingwin32verstampto stamp their own executables, so I left it there. (maybe it should be moved, with a deprecated alias left inwin32/Lib)Closes #2306, fixes #2386 and addresses one of the points in #2208 by removing the flag entirely.
I left in the
make_all.bat/build_all.batscripts for now. But the release process can now be simplified to just downloading the artefacts on the CI instead of rebuilding everything locally.
