and if we have this static method
        df.show();
        Column c = concatFunction(df, "l1", "firstname,lastname");
        df.select(c).show();

with this code :
    Column concatFunction(DataFrame df, String fieldName, String columns) {
        String[] array = columns.split(",");
        Column[] concatColumns = new Column[array.length];
        for (int i = 0; i < concatColumns.length; i++) {
            concatColumns[i]=df.col(array[i]);
        }

        return functions.concat(concatColumns).alias(fieldName);
    }
