The way we are doing it is this:

We have a file in lib called SharedFunctions.php, and lib.* are imported in config/main, so that Yii, autoloads the SharedFunctions file..

In SharedFunctions.php file

Class SharedFunctions{
    public static function lib() {
        return new SharedFunctions();
    }

    public function myfunction($params) {
        ....
    }
}

Now anywhere in Yii app we can use any function defined in the SharedFunctions file as 

SharedFunctions::lib()->myfunction($params);
