Call static method on classes without namspaces

Question

I have a library that don't uses namespaces but uses only static methods, how could I make it available throughout the application? I'm using Symfony 3.2

This can be done in your composer.json file for autoloading:

"autoload": {
    "files": ["/path/to/my/file/with/functions.php"]
}

Don't forget to run composer dump-autoload to rebuild the cached autoloader.
