 *
 * <!-- begin-model-doc -->
 * 
 * 
 *         The stateful-timeoutType represents the amount of time
 *         a stateful session bean can be idle(not receive any client
 *         invocations) before it is eligible for removal by the container.
 *         
 *         A timeout value of 0 means the bean is immediately eligible for removal.
 *         
 *         A timeout value of -1 means the bean will never be removed due to timeout.
 *         
 *         @since Java EE 6, EJB 3.1
