The Java binding maps the following EdgeDB types to corresponding JVM types:

EdgeDB Type	JVM Type
`Set`	`Collection<T>`

`anytuple`	`com.edgedb.driver.datatypes.Tuple`
`anyenum`	`enum`
`Object`	`Object`
`bool`	`boolean`
`bytes`	`byte[]`
`str`	`String`
`cal::local_date`	`java.time.LocalDate`
`cal::local_time`	`java.time.LocalTime`
`cal::local_datetime`	`java.time.LocalDateTime`
`cal::relative_duration`	`com.edgedb.driver.datatypes.RelativeDuration` [1]
`datetime`	`java.time.OffsetDateTime` [2]
`duration`	`java.time.Duration`
`float32`	`float`
`float64`	`double`
`int16`	`short`
`int32`	`int`
`int64`	`long`
`bigint`	`java.math.BigInteger`
`decimal`	`java.math.BigDecimal`
`json`	`com.edgedb.driver.datatypes.Json`
`uuid`	`UUID`
`range()`	`com.edgedb.driver.datatypes.Range`

[1] Period and Duration are implicitly converted to and from RelativeDuration.

[2] Both java.time.OffsetDateTime and java.time.ZonedDateTime are compatable.
