Using JavaSVN via SVNClientInterface (JavaHL) API

JavaSVN provides an alternate for the JavaHL SVNClient class - the SVNClientImpl class (org.tmatesoft.svn.core.javahl) that does not use any native bindings. This class implements SVNClientInterface (org.tigris.subversion.javahl) as the native one but uses only the JavaSVN library API (written in pure Java!).

This class may be used by those developers which would like to have both implementations - the native one (SVNClient) and SVNClientImpl.

SVNClientImpl is provided within the javasvn.jar file and requires the JavaHL API, so, if you are going to use SVNClientImpl you should have both components on your classpath.

Also if one does not want to use the JavaHL SVNClient class he can replace it with the SVNClient class that uses only JavaSVN API. Read this article for details.
