g_str_is_ascii()

[Claudio Saavedra <csaavedra alumnos utalca cl>]

Hi list

I need to write a function to reject strings that are utf-8, i.e. accept
only convencional ascii strings.

I was wondering if there is any other way more nice than making a 

gboolean
str_is_ascii (const gchar *str)
{       
        return (str (mystring) == g_utf8_strlen (str, -1));
}

Thanks in advance.

Claudio
