Don't think this is going to help: 

#!/usr/bin/perl -wl

my $artefact = "foo";

my $file = "C:/abc/def/klm/Properties/$artefact.properties";

print $file;

   $file = 'C:/abc/def/klm/Properties/' . $artefact.properties;

print $file;

gives 

$ ./880572.pl
Unquoted string "properties" may clash with future reserved word at ./
+880572.pl line 9.
C:/abc/def/klm/Properties/foo.properties
C:/abc/def/klm/Properties/fooproperties

and with use strict you'd get 

$ ./880572.pl
Bareword "properties" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at ./8805
+72.pl line 10.
Execution of ./880572.pl aborted due to compilation errors.
