Longest subarray having maximum sum

Given an array arr[] containing n integers. The problem is to find the length of the subarray having maximum sum. If there exists two or more subarrays with maximum sum then print the length of the longest subarray.
Examples:

Input : arr[] = {5, -2, -1, 3, -4}
Output : 4
There are two subarrays with maximum sum:
First is {5}
Second is {5, -2, -1, 3}
Therefore longest one is of length 4.

Input : arr[] = {-2, -3, 4, -1, -2, 1, 5, -3}
Output : 5
The subarray is {4, -1, -2, 1, 5}

Approach: Following are the steps:

1. Find the maximum sum contiguous subarray. Let this sum be maxSum.
2. Find the length of the longest subarray having sum equal to maxSum. Refer this post.

C++

// C++ implementation to find the length of the longest
// subarray having maximum sum
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// function to find the maximum sum that
// exists in a subarray
int maxSubArraySum(int arr[], int size)
{
    int max_so_far = arr[0];
    int curr_max = arr[0];

    for (int i = 1; i < size; i++) {
        curr_max = max(arr[i], curr_max + arr[i]);
        max_so_far = max(max_so_far, curr_max);
    }
    return max_so_far;
}

// function to find the length of longest
// subarray having sum k
int lenOfLongSubarrWithGivenSum(int arr[], int n, int k)
{
    // unordered_map 'um' implemented
    // as hash table
    unordered_map<int, int> um;
    int sum = 0, maxLen = 0;

    // traverse the given array
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {

        // accumulate sum
        sum += arr[i];

        // when subarray starts from index '0'
        if (sum == k)
            maxLen = i + 1;

        // make an entry for 'sum' if it is
        // not present in 'um'
        if (um.find(sum) == um.end())
            um[sum] = i;

        // check if 'sum-k' is present in 'um'
        // or not
        if (um.find(sum - k) != um.end()) {

            // update maxLength
            if (maxLen < (i - um[sum - k]))
                maxLen = i - um[sum - k];
        }
    }

    // required maximum length
    return maxLen;
}

// function to find the length of the longest
// subarray having maximum sum
int lenLongSubarrWithMaxSum(int arr[], int n)
{
    int maxSum = maxSubArraySum(arr, n);
    return lenOfLongSubarrWithGivenSum(arr, n, maxSum);

    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
    cout << "Length of longest subarray having maximum sum = "
         << lenLongSubarrWithMaxSum(arr, n);
