I am trying to create a method that pretty much takes anything as a parameter, and returns a concatenated string representation of the value with some delimiter.

public static String getConcatenated(char delim, Object ...names) {
String[] stringArray = Arrays.copyOf(names, names.length, String[].class); //Exception here
return getConcatenated(delim, stringArray);
}

And the actual method

public static String getConcatenated(char delim, String ... names) {
if(names == null || names.length == 0)
    return "";

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

for(int i = 0; i < names.length; i++) {
    String n = names[i];
    if(n != null) {
        sb.append(n.trim());
        sb.append(delim);
    }
}

//Remove the last delim
return sb.substring(0, sb.length()-1).toString();
}

And I have the following JUnit test:

final String two = RedpillLinproUtils.getConcatenated(' ', "Shervin", "Asgari");
Assert.assertEquals("Result", "Shervin Asgari", two); //OK

final String three = RedpillLinproUtils.getConcatenated(';', "Shervin", "Asgari");
Assert.assertEquals("Result", "Shervin;Asgari", three); //OK

final String four = RedpillLinproUtils.getConcatenated(';', "Shervin", null, "Asgari", null);
Assert.assertEquals("Result", "Shervin;Asgari", four); //OK

final String five = RedpillLinproUtils.getConcatenated('/', 1, 2, null, 3, 4);
Assert.assertEquals("Result", "1/2/3/4", five); //FAIL

However, the test fails on the last part with the exception:

java.lang.ArrayStoreException at java.lang.System.arraycopy(Native Method) at java.util.Arrays.copyOf(Arrays.java:2763)

Can someone spot the error?
