:ref:`MPI_Status_set_elements` modifies the opaque part of status so that a call to :ref:`MPI_Get_elements` or :ref:`MPI_Get_elements_x` will return count. :ref:`MPI_Get_count` will return a compatible value.
A subsequent call to MPI_Get_count(status, datatype, count), to MPI_Get_elements(status, datatype, count), or to MPI_Get_elements_x(status, datatype, count) must use a data-type argument that has the same type signature as the data-type argument that was used in the call to :ref:`MPI_Status_set_elements`.*
Users are advised not to reuse the status fields for values other than those for which they were intended. Doing so may lead to unexpected results when using the status object. For example, calling :ref:`MPI_Get_elements` may cause an error if the value is out of range, or it may be impossible to detect such an error. The extra_state argument provided with a generalized request can be used to return information that does not logically belong in status. Furthermore, modifying the values in a status set internally by MPI, such as :ref:`MPI_Recv`, may lead to unpredictable results and is strongly discouraged.
