first of all: the 32-bit dll that comes with the x64 version of TSVN
only has very, very limited functionality. For example, it lacks all
networking stuff. That's because it's only needed for the shell
extension and doesn't need to do much.

You'd have to use the 64-bit version of that dll.
And to use the TSVN dlls, you would need the headers from here:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/branches/1.9.x/subversion/include

That's where the API is defined, and those APIs have to be used from
that dll.

I'm not sure if the APIs are exported as C-functions or C++-functions -
it doesn't really matter for TSVN so I've never paid attention to that.

You can try to get the exported functions via GetProcAddress() and see
if that works.

But I think it would be better if you could use the dlls from an
official svn command line client - those are guaranteed to stay the same
and compatible, while the TSVN dll is not and can change at any time.
