How does one implement drag and drop for Android marker?

Question

Hi? I am working on a MapView app in Android. I have three markers that I want to be able to use the Google Map API getlocation-function on, later on. In order to try it out I would like to move the marker with a drag and drop-function, and then check the location.

Anyone who has gotten a drag and drop to work on an android marker, or know a way to start figuring it out?

Implement Google Maps Android API v2, refer this: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/ and set on GoogleMap object setOnMarkerDragListener. For Ex:

map.setOnMarkerDragListener(new OnMarkerDragListener() {
        @Override
        public void onMarkerDragStart(Marker arg0) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            Log.d("System out", "onMarkerDragStart..."+arg0.getPosition().latitude+"..."+arg0.getPosition().longitude);
        }

        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        @Override
        public void onMarkerDragEnd(Marker arg0) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            Log.d("System out", "onMarkerDragEnd..."+arg0.getPosition().latitude+"..."+arg0.getPosition().longitude);

            map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(arg0.getPosition()));
        }

        @Override
        public void onMarkerDrag(Marker arg0) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            Log.i("System out", "onMarkerDrag...");
        }
    });

//Don't forget to Set draggable(true) to marker, if this not set marker does not drag.

map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
    .position(crntLocationLatLng)
    .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.icon_my_location))
    .draggable(true));
