An embedded processor system includes an integrated development environment and an embedded processor operating system. The embedded processor operating system is operable to run on the embedded processor system, and a command queue is operable to receive commands from a debugging module external to the embedded processor system. A command queue processing module is operable to change settings in the embedded processor system in response to commands in the command queue.

A method and apparatus are provided for permitting selected requests to a data processing system received in a selected packetized format, and in particular hard real time requests, to receive accelerated &ldquo;fast&rdquo; processing. Each packet includes a field normally used for controlling routing of the request, for example a &ldquo;port&rdquo; field, which may contain selected codes for requests to receive fast processing. A table containing such special codes and an address pointer for each such code is also stored, incoming requests having a code in the selected field matching a code in the table being routed either for priority processing by an application at the pointer address, bypassing certain preliminary processing, or being routed to incorporate data at a buffer located at the pointer address into a packetized reply message.
