Answer 1

you can use like below

Edit you Package/Module/etc/config.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
... Your Other config here ....
   <frontend> 
        <routers> 
          <catalog> 
             <args> 
             <modules> 
                <Package_Catalog before="Mage_Catalog">Package_Catalog</Package_Catalog>
             </modules> 
             </args> 
         </catalog> 
       </routers> 
   </frontend> 
</config>

Now your controller already ready.

include(Mage::getBaseDir()."/app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/controllers/ProductController.php");
class Package_Catalog_ProductController extends Mage_Catalog_ProductController
{
      public function viewAction(){
             echo __METHOD__;
      }
}
?>
