I would like to extend org.jboss.seam.Component functionality , how can I do such a thing?
I tried to put the class in my src folder but then I am getting class cast exception...

Thanks

I am tryin to add new CustomRequestParameter annotation that will have a default parameter in case the client didn't send antyhing (right now I am getting exception in such a case)

therefor I need to change the Component in order to support my new annotation...
