Opening and reading MIB files

I would like to be able to open MIB files within my own application, obtain a tree structure of all the items within those mib files and present the items in my user interface to be picked (much like a mib browser).
 
I have started by using the following function calls:
 
init_mib()
 
add_mibdir()
 
read_mib()
 
I have some questions regarding this:
 
1. Are these the correct functions to be using?
2. Are there any dependencies on other programs running for them to work?
3. Do i need to perform any init_snmp() type functions if all i want to do is browse some MIB files?
4. What default directories are added as MIB file directories, if any?
4. When I use the above functions my tree structure is always returned as NULL? I am obviously missing something. Do you have any idea?
 
Any help much appreciated.
 
Thanks
