See below, how can I call animals growl while within a method of my
interface (I need that - cant get rid of it).

public class animal {
   public void growl() {
      System.out.println("growl");
   }
}

public class dog extends animal {

   public void growl() {
      IDefaultCall default = new IDefaultCall () {

        public void execute() {
           // I can do it this as super. points to IDefaultCell !
           super.growl();
        }
       };
      call (default);
   }

}

First, class names should be UpperCase.

I think the syntax you're looking for is something like dog.super.growl();

Yes I just typed here in lowercase.

Even if it looks like a static method call that syntax works, learn
something every day.
