list.toArray(new String[0])

From the API docs for 'toArray(T[] a)':

ArrayStoreException - if the runtime type of the specified array is not a supertype of the runtime type of every element in this list

The OP's original list variable was 'bar' but they never told us the type of that variable. What they said was:

If 'bar' is of type 'String[]' then, of course, your tip will work perfectly.
