How to trigger upstream builders when downstream projects change [message #479833]

I'm implementing a new project incremental builder. My projects have
dependencies. For example, I have two projects: projectA and
projectThatDependsOnA. I'm unsure how I should tell eclipse to rebuild
projectThatDependsOnA everytime projectA changes. I've setup the project
references and that helps with build ordering but it doesn't seem to
trigger the upstream builds as necessary.

I see that I can call something like IProject#build but this doesn't
appear to run in the background as a normal build.

TIA
