I haven't used it, but you might want to look at "loadresource". This loads
a resource into a property, but you can use the resource filters on it. This
would allow you to load a text resource into a property, but only those
lines that contain that regex you're looking for.
Then, you could check to see if your property is empty or not.
Since you're using antcontrib, you can use the <var> task instead of
<property> which would allow you to reset it each time.
The other possibility is to use a fileset of all of your files, and check
them all in one shot. Of course, you wouldn't know which file has the
string, but you'd have your task of failing the build.
