One approach is indeed the function call interface others pointed out.
For some applications, a wire protocol connection is more appropriate,
and simulators like SID, and a few of gdb's own, implement the usual
"remote" protocol across a TCP socket. This style of integration has
benefits (separate building, separate main-loop control, no GPL
licensing implications) and some costs (less automatic startup,
potentially lower performance).
