Hook into the FrontController to run custom code

[truetaurus]

I want to add a hook into the FrontController (classes\controller\FrontController.php) (or anywhere else if you have a better idea), and then run some custom code. However if i ever update prestashop, this will be removed right? So is there anyway to prevent this? like overriding the frontController in my custom theme folder?

You can use override function of prestashop - refer http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Overriding+default+behaviors

I should have probably clarified, i am using 1.7 and i dont think that works in 1.7

Its working fine. Just override file then clear prestashop cache

And override I create in my custom theme folder?

Overrides are not created in theme. Please check doc http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Overriding+default+behaviors
