Save option in RCP Product

Iam developing a RCP application which consists of views and editors. I can change the values and edit the values of some parameters in editor. When a value has been changed, i need to make the editor dirty as well as would also like to enable the save button. Till now, i have not implemented my save button. Could anyone guide me how to make the save button enabled as well as how can i make an editor dirty when some modifications happen in editor.

Thanks in advance. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Girish

Here is an overview of the Form editor logic, hop it will help you. 

public class TestEditor extends FormEditor {

    @Override
    protected void addPages() {
        // this method is called when the editor is being created
        // to add the necessary pages
        // page classes should be like following
        // class TestEditorPage extends FormPage
        try {
            TestEditorPage pageTest = new TestEditorPage(this);
            addPage(pageTest);
        } catch (PartInitException e) {
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void doSave(IProgressMonitor monitor) {
        // this method will be called on save action
        // (or Ctrl + s shortcut)
    }

    @Override
    public void doSaveAs() {
        // this method will be called on save-as 
        //call (or Ctrl + Shift + s shortcut)
    }


    @Override
    public boolean isSaveAsAllowed() {
       // put here the call to the logic that 
       // check if the save is allowed
       return true;
    }


    @Override
    public boolean isDirty() {
        // Here the call for the logic that 
        // defines if the editor is dirty or not
        return true;
    }
}
