In Eclipse both the CDT and DSF(DD) uses MI.
Emacs too.
All this is open source, so you can have a look if it may help.

This is the documentation I use for MI.  It has served me pretty well up
to now for my work in DSF.

http://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb_25.html#SEC240

Of course, we use the CDT code as a great guide.
Having such an example it often a great complement to the doc.
