Drag And Drop to copy items between ListView

Last exercise demonstrate how to "Passing object in Drap And Drop using myLocalState". In this exercise, demonstrate how to copy items between ListView by Drag And Drop.

User can drap a item from listSource, the long clicked item is copy to item in dragData, then drop on listTarget to add it.

Drag And Drop to copy items between ListView

Modify main.xml to have two ListView.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

<TextView
