I've been working (slowly) on adding swo support for the stlink debugger in cortex-debug but then realized that rtt may be a better option. I would need to ask the author of cortex-debug, but my question is: would you be okay with using this program with cortex-debug? It would probably not be distributed but would be downloaded by vscode with a prompt.

The other part of this is that, although the javascript version can run natively in vscode, I don't think it has tcp implemented, which would be required. Also the cpp version is probably more performant the the javascript version, and including the sources could cause more issues. So I think the cpp version is the right choice.

Hi, thank you for this project, it is really useful to me.
I noticed that the project includes sockpp as a dependency in src/rtt/CMakeLists.txt, and the GIT_TAG specified there is master.
However, with recent versions of sockpp, the build fails with the following error:

/home/user/strtt/src/rtt/sysview.cpp: In member function ‘void SysView::run_server()’:
/home/user/strtt/src/rtt/sysview.cpp:98:32: error: ‘sockpp::socket_initializer::socket_initializer()’ is private within this context
   98 |     sockpp::socket_initializer sockInit;
      |                                ^~~~~~~~

When I specify sockpp v0.7.1, the build succeds, but starting with the following version, v0.8.0, it fails.
