Adding Close and isOpen into NotesDatabase Class

When working with NotesDatabase objects it would be good to have the option to check if a database is open on the server using a isopen command and also be able to tell the server to close a certain database.

    It is much worse that NotesDatabase class does not have an IsExist method.

    Well, the appropriate functions exists in NotesDatabase:

    NotesDatabase.IsOpen and Notesdatabase.Close()


    But I guess you want to check, if somebody else is using the database (isOpen), or block it from usage (Close)? This can only be done using administrative console commands.
