Java Regexp to Match ASCII Characters

Question

What regex would match any ASCII character in java?

I've already tried:

^[\\p{ASCII}]*$

but found that it didn't match lots of things that I wanted (like spaces, parentheses, etc...). I'm hoping to avoid explicitly listing all 127 ASCII characters in a format like:

^[a-zA-Z0-9!@#$%^*(),.<>~`[]{}\\/+=-\\s]*$

Answer 1

The first try was almost correct

"^\\p{ASCII}*$"

Answer 2

I have never used \\p{ASCII} but I have used ^[\\u0000-\\u007F]*$

Answer 3

If you only want the printable ASCII characters you can use ^[ -~]*$ - i.e. all characters between space and tilde.
