How to resolve the "Tried to send an out-of-range integer as a 2-byte value" error

I’m submitting a question about “Tried to send an out-of-range integer as a 2-byte value”

• [ jdbc driver] bug report
• feature request

Introduce

Jdbc execute a long/batch insert sql,  like: ```insert into values(?,?,?),(?,?,?),(?,?,?)...```
but client throws an error: "Tried to send an out-of-range integer as a 2-byte value:" ... 
When I review the source code, and I find the implementation like below:

Background

Maven pom.xml

<dependency>
     <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
     <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
     <version>42.2.5</version>
</dependency>

Source Code

 [Line: 1442]  QueryExecutorImpl.java

  // ....
   pgStream.sendInteger2(params.getParameterCount());

 // ....

[Line: 235] PGStream.java

// ....
public void sendInteger2(int val) throws IOException {
    if (val < Short.MIN_VALUE || val > Short.MAX_VALUE) {
      throw new IOException("Tried to send an out-of-range integer as a 2-byte value: " + val);
    }

    _int2buf[0] = (byte) (val >>> 8);
    _int2buf[1] = (byte) val;
    pg_output.write(_int2buf);
  }
....

Describe the issue A clear and concise description of what the issue is.

I don't know why param count should be greater/equals than Short.MIN_VALUE (-32768) 
or less/equals than Short.MAX_VALUE (32767). 
When I execute batch sql (especially build lots of columns ), 
this error must be occurred. I can not guess the check whether  to protect the server side?  
I think the jdbc driver client should not limit the length of statement. 
We can use MAX_ALLOWED_PACKET parameter which is defined in MySQL server in the server side.
Wait for your response asap !!!
