+### `--trace`
+Compile with lttng's instrumentation.
+
+Currently add a lttng trace provider and add tracepoint into object instances and destructions.
+
+The lttng nit/misc/Nit_Compiler.lttng file is a template that you can use instead of configure channels by yourself. You have to configure the path of the destination tracefile. <destination> <path> "your path" </path> </destination>

+To create a channel with template :
+       lttng-sessiond --daemonize
+       lttng load -i=~/nit/misc/Nit_Compiler.lttng Nit_Compiler
+To create a channel without template :

 Analysis of methods is thus done only when required.
 This option breaks the behavior of most of the tools since errors in methods are undetected until the method is required in some processing.
 
+## Contract
+By default the contracts can be defined as "semi-global". I.E. All contracts (ensures, expects) used in the main package are enabled, the `expects` contracts are enabled (`ensures` contracts are disable) in direct imported package. Other indirected imported package has no active contract.

+### `--no-contract`
+Option used to disable the contracts(ensures, expects) usage.
+
+### `--full-contract`
+Option used to enables contracts (ensures, expects) on all classes. Warning this is an expensive option at runtime.
