Horizontal line between two equal width TextViews

I have a LinearLayout that fills the whole screen horizontally. It has two TextViews with layout_weight of 1. Now I want to add a one dp wide line seperating these two elements. How do I add, for example, a View element with width of one dp?

This one could be used as the View.

Vertical line using XML drawable

Here's my layout for the relevant part.

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/LinearLayout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/actionSave"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:text="Save" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/actionCancel"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:text="Cancel" />
</LinearLayout>

Just add a View with width 1dp between the two TextViews

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/LinearLayout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/actionSave"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:text="Save" />

    <View
        android:layout_width="2dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="#123456" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/actionCancel"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:text="Cancel" />

</LinearLayout>
