Don't understand 'complete-items' in the vim help files

I am looking at the vim help files and looking for a variable on the linux version that is like v:completed_item from cygwin. v:completed_item is a:

Dictionary containing the complete-items for the most recently completed word after CompleteDone.  The Dictionary is empty if the completion failed.

I am looking for the same thing for Linux but I cannot find it and the closes thing I can find in the ins-completion help file is complete-item but nothing on how to use it anyone know how to use it? And if it will be the same as the completed_item from the cygwin version?

Thanks

The presence of a feature doesn't depend on the platform, it depends on the build type, version number, and patch-level.

If you want feature parity between two environments, you rather obviously must install the same build type and version number (including patches) on both environments.

FYI, that variable was added in patch 7.4.774.
