Ouch... you have my sympathies, Dmitry. I'm having nightmares already from
recalling the hellishness of attempting to do development work on pre-OS X
systems.. :)
Sadly, the Java bindings option is almost certain to be a no-go unless they work
with the now-ancient 1.1.8 JVM (Apple never released full JDKs for the Mac OS
until OS X), which was the last JVM release for Mac OS 9.
In response to Ryan's comment about WebDAV, Mac OS 9 doesn't have a built-in
client for it... it's an awfully long shot, but Google and/or VersionTracker.com
(a Mac software tracking site) may unearth an OS 9-compatible WebDAV client,
although you would be stuck with the limitations imposed by WebDAV.
Good luck...
Cheers,
b

I'm not sure what version of java is available for OS 9.2, but you
might have some luck hacking together a client with the JavaSVN
bindings. They don't support the file:// access method, but
otherwise they should do the trick.
Scott
P.S. Your client might also be urged to reconsider their choice of
running on an obsolete/unsupported platform, if it is at all possible
for them.

What Ben said is going to be key:

According to the release announcement for the latest version of APR
[1], it supports UNIX, Windows, Netware, Mac OS X, OS/2 and BeOS.
Those operating systems are not similar to Mac OS 9, so I don't think
APR will work on OS 9. (You could ask on their mailing list [2] to
make sure.) And if there's no APR, there can be no Subversion.
[1] http://www.apache.org/dist/apr/Announcement.html
[2] http://apr.apache.org/mailing-lists.html
As to the WebDAV idea, if you can find a WebDAV client for OS 9 (or
if one is built-in... I honestly forget now...) then you could
connect to a repository that way. There would be no updating of a
working copy, of course; the view you see over WebDAV would always be
the head of the repository.

I wish it was my chose to move away from the mac os 9 -- one of those nasty
clients requirements.
First of all i'm new to mac in general.
And i should probably define my problem in more detailed way.
Basically what i'm trying to do, i'm writing a standalone flash application
(that has to run on any platform -- mac os 9.2 is unfortunately the main
chose). I need to be able to on a click of a button either invoke some action
script function that does the svn update (i believe there is no AS API for
subversion yet), or invoke some external svn command that does the update (and
from what i'm getting it's just not possible on mac).
Perhaps doing something fancy with webdav could solve my problem (but i'm also
new to web dav as well :) )
Anyways, i don't expect that someone would have a feasable solution to my
requirements problem (as well as to my ignorance), but in case someone has any
ideas -- PLEASE HEEEEELP!!!!
thanks

Mac OS 9 does not have a command line, making that a bit difficult.
You could store your working copies on a Unix, Linux, *BSD or Mac OS
X file server, and connect to it using an SSH client (of which some
exist for Mac OS 9, though the ones I'm thinking of cost money) and
issue SVN commands over SSH.
I'm not aware of any native Subversion clients for Mac OS 9, and
Google didn't show me any. As should be well-known by now, Mac OS 9
is dead, meaning developers are encouraged to focus their efforts on
Mac OS X. Now that Mac OS X is 4.5 years old, many developers have
done this. It would be a good idea to upgrade to Mac OS X.

Does APR build on OS 9.2? If not, neither Subversion client or
server will build. Subversion is only as portable as APR is.
