Comparison_result ArrTraits::CompareXNearLimit_2::operator() ( const ArrTraits::X_monotone_curve_2 &  xcv1,
const ArrTraits::X_monotone_curve_2 &  xcv2,
Arr_curve_end  ce 
)

Given two \( x\)-monotone curves xcv1 and xcv2 and an enumeration ce that specifies either the minimum ends or the maximum ends of the curves where the curves have a vertical asymptote, compares the \( x\)-coordinate of the curves near their respective ends.

Returns SMALLER, EQUAL, or LARGER accordingly. More precisely, compares the \( x\)-coordinates of the horizontal projection of a point \( p\) onto xcv1 and xcv2. If xcv1 and xcv2 approach the bottom boundary-side, \( p\) is located far to the bottom, such that the result is invariant under a translation of \( p\) farther to the bottom. If xcv1 and xcv2 approach the top boundary-side, \( p\) is located far to the top in a similar manner.

Precondition
The \( x\)-coordinates of the limits of the curves at their respective ends are equal. That is, compare_x_at_limit_2(xcv1, xcv2, ce) = EQUAL.
parameter_space_in_y_2(xcv1, ce) = parameter_space_in_y_2(xcv2, ce).
parameter_space_in_y_2(xcv1, ce) \( \neq\) ARR_INTERIOR.
