Calling `replaceWithText` on private static property with no spaces to be non-private leads to error

Describe the bug

Version: 15.1.0

I have a class with a private static property that I would like to make public by renaming it. The weird thing is, that the issue only happens if the file is in minified form.

To Reproduce

import { Project, SyntaxKind } from "ts-morph";

// This works
const content1 = `
class Test{
    static #t = 23;
}`;

// This fails
const content2 = "class Test{static#t=23;}";

const project = new Project();
const file = project.createSourceFile("test.ts", content2);

const classNode = file.getFirstChildByKindOrThrow(SyntaxKind.ClassDeclaration);
const property = classNode.getFirstChildByKindOrThrow(SyntaxKind.PropertyDeclaration);
const privateIdentifier = property.getFirstChildByKindOrThrow(SyntaxKind.PrivateIdentifier);

// remove # from the beginning of the name
const publicName = privateIdentifier.getText().substring(1);
privateIdentifier.replaceWithText(publicName);

console.log(file.getText());

If I use the minified input (content2), then the following error is thrown:

Stack: Error: Error replacing tree! Perhaps a syntax error was inserted (Current: SyntaxList -- New: Identifier).

Expected behavior

It should work with the minified version as well.

Yeah, I started working on it, but it’s a decent amount of additional code. I’m going to close this one as “wont do” and recommend adding some conditional logic like the following to tell if a space should be added:

const content2 = "class Test{static#t=23;}";

const project = new Project();
const file = project.createSourceFile("test.ts", content2);

const classNode = file.getClassOrThrow("Test");
const property = classNode.getPropertyOrThrow("#t");
const privateIdentifier = property.getNameNode();

// remove # from the beginning of the name
let publicName = privateIdentifier.getText().substring(1);
if (isAlphaNumeric(file.getFullText().charCodeAt(privateIdentifier.getStart() - 1))) {
  // add a space if the previous character is alphanumeric
  publicName = " " + publicName;
}
privateIdentifier.replaceWithText(publicName);

console.log(file.getText());

function isAlphaNumeric(charCode: number) {
  return charCode > 47 && charCode < 58 // 0-9
    || charCode > 64 && charCode < 91 // A-Z
    || charCode > 96 && charCode < 123; // a-z
}

This is clever, thank you!
