I want to build a gui to it, be able to send commands to it and retrieve information about the debugging process, I am in a long process of writing a IDE for linux, might take years actually and started to think about how to interface to a debugger. I don't know anything about the topic so any ideas about how to do this is much appreciated. Ideally it would be integrated into the IDE that would be best.

separate program. If it is a separate program, then I'd look at the MI
interface (see gdb/mi/gdbmi.texinfo).If you're looking to link gdb in then the longer term libGDB objective
may be more relevant. The MI interface as a set of function calls is
what is hoped libGDB will eventually provide.
