Is there a way for one filter (A say) to change the name of a method and pass this new method name with the same args to the next filter in sequence(B say)?

you want to call from D->f1 via next the method C->f2?

Class C C instproc f1 .... C instproc f2 Class D -superclass C D instproc f1 {} { next }

no, you can't do it. you can do certainly the following:

D instproc f1 {} { if {....some-condition...} { [self] f2 } else { next } }

-gustaf PS: there is a way to call methods of a class directly, but i won't recommend it, since it is going to change in the next releaese, when XOTcl will be a well behaved extension, and everything is moved into the xotcl namespace
