To some extent, the (public and supported) AMX APIs solve this issue;
utility code there is accessible to client and server code.
Code is found in com.sun.appserv.management.util.* packages.
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/nonav/javaee5/amx/javadoc/index.html
The code there is of general purpose use; I see two classifications
(at least) of utility code:
1) code useful any almost any kind of application
2) code that assumes an particular environment eg GlassFish
3) code that assumes both a particular environment and is module/area
specific
Of the above, (1) is most useful, with (2) following close behind.
