I think the best site for this is

www.oreilly.com/catalaog

if ur looking for  abook i would suggest u to go through

Java 2 -the complete reference

its damn simple and stsrts right from the beginning like loops, conditional statements, classes, inheritance etc.since u've had experience in c++ u'll follow it with no difficulty.


www.oreilly.com/catalog has excellent examples on all the major topics and i advise u to firts got through the complete reference book and look into the examples of oreilly.

    bye

1. What is Swing, Java Beans, Java Servelet, and all java others terms.
      goto java.sun.com and try to find tutorial/documentation there.

2. Which IDE is most people prefer?
   i prefer JEXT for its simplicity. u may try "heavy-duty" Forte.
i think JBuilder 4.0 is good IDE
and try find all these topics in tutorial in javasoft.com.
I will be of great help to u

I've already provided you with all the links I could provide.

http://manning.spindoczine.com/sbe/ is an e-book on Swing
(you can see it in the list of my last comment under swing)
Here's the complete java language specification : http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/first_edition/html/index.html

Here's a site with a lot of information also:
http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~sullivan/Java.html

Suggestion : do a search on the net using your favorite search engine on "learning java" or something like that... You will find plenty of info.
