Looking for Java metrics article and tool

Hi all,
Some time ago (I think it was about 2 to 3 years) I read an interesting
article about Java metrics, but I cannot recall the name of the article and
I had no luck searching for it.
Does anybody know the article I'm referring to?
The article was about a method of analyzing the 'oo-ness'/coupling of a java
application. It came with a tool that calculated that level of oo-ness.
There were some examples of which (of course) only the source code of the
tool itself scored a 100% :) If I recall correctly, 2 others were Junit
(high score) and Eclipse (low score).
The article explained the opinion of the author that a package in Java
should either completely be an 'interface' (consisting of only interfaces
and abstract classes) or completely be an implementation of an interface
package without other packages depending on it.
Strict adherance to these rules introduced a problem during initialization
(the package with the main procedure -in an implementation package- will
have to construct classes in other implementation packages). The way to
solve this was a staged initialization procedure.
That's about as much as I remember of it. Anybody?
TIA,
Corno
