I added several preprocess commands for the creation of the component,
converter, validator and listeners. You can register the new catalog
"clayCustomization" with the chains configuration resources in the web
deployment descriptor.
example web.xml
<!-- Commons Chain Configuration Resources -->
<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.commons.chain.CONFIG_WEB_RESOURCE</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/chain-config.xml, /WEB-INF/test.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
example test.xml
<catalog name="clayCustomization">
<chain name="preprocessAddComponent">
<command className="org.apache.shale.usecases.rolodex.CustomCommand"/>
</chain>
</catalog>
