```
    This method allows checking if a business object with a specified ID exists or not.
    Note: In Matrix, you can not simply check if an object exists or not, if you only have the ID of the business object.
    This method will use savepoints to accomplish this, hence the overhead of this method is probably a bit higher than it is if you would use the exists(BusinessObject) or exists(String, String, String).
    Basically, this method will do:
```
 TxSavepoint sp = TxManager.getLocalTxContext().savepoint();
 try {
     return StringUtils.isTrue(MQLUtils.mql("pri bus " + objectId + " select exists dump"));
 } catch (TVCException t) {
     sp.abort();
     return false;
 }
 
```
    Parameters:
    
    objectId - The object id
    
    Returns:
    
    True if the object exists
    
    Throws:
    
    TVCException

    Tries to change the revision value of a business object.
    Since changing the revision cannot be done without renaming the object, we also do that, but we will afterwards re-name the object back to its original name.
    The problem is that this might not always work, so this method might throw an exception in some cases due to this. That will in turn result in that the transaction is rolled back, so the name should still be the same as before invoking this method (hopefully ;)

    Expand the businessobject to the end with the specified conditions/constraints.
    Note: This method uses the "recurse to end" clause when expanding; and this feature is not available in Matrix prior to version 10.6.3. Using this method for a pre 10.6.3 version will result in an error to be thrown.

    objectId - The id of a businessobject.
    
    relationshipPattern - A relationship pattern (null will be treated as *).

    getFrom - Whether or not to get from-side relationships.
    
    objectWhereClause - Where clause that will be evaluated on businessobjects.
    
    relationshipWhereClause - Where clause that will be evaluated on relationships.
    
    Returns:
    
    An Iterator, where each item in the iterator is a string-array of length 2. The first item in this array is the relationship id, and the last item is the object id. NOTE: The array is reused between each iteration. Don't store the returned array itself. If that is needed; you need to copy the array.
