    So you want to add Joomla! 3.0 compatibility to your component? The old MVC is still available but unfortunately, the names of the classes have changed.
Just add the following somewhere, then rename all your classes to extend the legacy classes. After that all you have to do is make sure you're not using any depreciated methods. Of course, eventually you should work on full compatibility you lazy developer!
<?php 

jimport('joomla.application.component.controller');
jimport('joomla.application.component.view');
jimport('joomla.application.component.model');

if(!class_exists('JControllerLegacy'))
{
  class JControllerLegacy extends JController {}
  class JViewLegacy extends JView {}
  class JModelLegacy extends JModel {}
}

defined('DS') ? null : define('DS',DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
