PLForge: Enhancing Language Models for Natural Language to Procedural Extensions of SQL

Summary: Defines NL-to-PL/SQL to target procedural, multi-statement PL/SQL generation that Text-to-SQL models neglect. Introduces PLForge (3/7/15B) via PL/SQL-centric incremental pretraining, custom prompting and synthetic NL–PL/SQL data, improving execution- and exact-match vs. baselines.
