Thanks David for your brief guidance,
So, if i am going to find out conclusion then i can say that calling svn+ssh repository then ssh client called by server, so authentication and server certificate type of work handled by ssh client. So, my concern is; how subversion knows that ssh client is called from svn+ssh server for authentication or other stuff. I think using subversion api's we will get return code saying that it is for ssh client. So, will you please eloborate this sequence using subversion api to use subversion with ssh in my application.
thanks in advance.
