Yes, is for the substring issue. The only case that would need an special treat would be the throws in case it starts with an "iff". But yes, for things like this there should be an special treatment, I'll do it inside the preprocessor or in another one.

Can you explain why we need a whitespace before and after "iff"? Is that to avoid to replace "iff" with "if" when "iff" is a substring of a word? In that case, should we apply the same strategy for the other replacement? And what if the "iff" is the beginning of a comment (i.e., there is no trailing whitespace)?

Clear, thanks.

I'd not make assumptions on the input comment, and I'd keep the replacement in the preprocessor. I suggest to use String#replaceAll, String#replaceFirst to replace the occurrences of a pattern with proper replacement. Probably we can keep a map regex pattern -> replacement and then apply the replacement for each key-value pair in the map.
As a note: the class you are changing is called NormalizeIfs
. However, NormalizeIfs
also replaces "non-empty" and "non-null", and this is misleading. Can you move the code replacing "non-empty" and "non-null" to a new class (or classes)?
