Hi Nihed,

Thanks for the reply.

I am looking for something like this :

DataFrame training = orgdf.withColumn("I1",
functions.concat(orgdf.col("C0"),orgdf.col("C1")));


Here I have to give C0 and C1 columns, I am looking to write a generic
function that concatenates the columns depending on input columns.

like if I have something
String str = "C0,C1,C2"

Then it should work as

DataFrame training = orgdf.withColumn("I1",
functions.concat(orgdf.col("C0"),orgdf.col("C1"),orgdf.col("C2")));



Thanks,
Abhi
